Poems by the Way

Published in 1891, this was Morris's last volume of poetry. It includes poems of many different kinds, some written as early as the 1860s, others in the years immediately preceding publication. Morris's versatility is evident: there are romantic lyrics, ballads, Nordic tales, verses for tapestries, Socialist songs, sections from the political narrative "Pilgrims of Hope" and the remarkable story of "Goldilocks and Goldilocks".
