Question

Stargazer poem summary?

Answer 1

A STARGAZER out late at night,

With eyes and thoughts turned both upright,

Tumbled by chance into a well

(A dismal story this to tell);

He roared and sobbed, and roared again,

And cursed the " Bear" and " Charles's Wain".

His woeful cries a neighbour brought,

Less learned, but wiser far in thought:

" My friend," quoth he, " you're much misled,

With stars to trouble thus your head;

Since you with these misfortunes meet,

For want of looking to your feet."
