Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Celebrate the arrival of long, bright evenings and British Summer Time with this short poem by Agnes Mary Frances Robinson, also known as Agnes Mary Frances Duclaux. Mary was also a respected literary critic, active in French and British intellectual circles through the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Though “The Pavilion” has no dedication, much of Mary’s poetry is dedicated to Vernon Lee (the pen name of Violet Paget), her lover and travelling companion for a number of years.
