- Joan of Arc is a 1796 epic poem composed by Robert Southey. The idea for the story came from a discussion between Southey and , when Southey realised that the story would be suitable for an epic. The subject further appealed to Southey because the events of the French Revolution were concurrent to the writing of the poem and would serve as a parallel to current events. Eventually, Samuel Taylor Coleridge helped rewrite parts of the poem for a 1798 edition. Later editions removed Coleridge's additions along with other changes. The poem is divided into two-halves with the first describing Joan's quest to meet Charles, the Dauphin of France. Eventually, she is capable of gaining the Dauphin's support and begins to lead the French military. The secondary half describes the French defeat of the British army at Orléans. After many victories, the poem ends with Charles crowned King of France. Joan of Arc serves as a way for Southey to express his views on history and on politics; these include his republican ideals, his claims that political tyranny was a common element in Europe, and his opposition to Christian practices that he thought were superstitious. Later editions of the poem shifted from a promotion of a deistic view of religion to a more traditional view. Critics gave the work mixed reviews, with some emphasising the quality of the images and themes of the poem. However, others believed that the poem lacked merit and some believed that the subject matter was inappropriate to the time. Many critics felt that Southey rushed in composing the work and did not devote enough time to it. (en)

And now beneath the horizon westering slow Had sunk the orb of Day: o'er all the vale A purple softness spread, save where the tree Its giant shadow stretch'd, or winding stream Mirrored the light of Heaven, still traced distinct When twilight dimly shrouded all beside. A grateful coolness freshened the calm air. And the hoarse grasshoppers their evening song Sung shrill and ceaseless, as the dews of night Descended.(Księga druga) (pl)
