The Dream Hunt
Ford Madox Hueffer
1873 to 1939
My lady rides a-hunting
Upon a dapple grey:
Six trumpeters they ride behind,
Six prickers clear the way.
And when she climbs the hillsides
The Hunt cries: "Ho! la! Lo!"
And when she trails along the dales
The merry horns do blow.
And so in summer weather,
Before the heat of day,
My darling takes all eyes and breaks
My heart and makes away.
Ford Madox Hueffer's The Dream Hunt
I am busy working to bring Ford Madox Hueffer's "The Dream Hunt" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Ford Madox Hueffer's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "The Dream Hunt" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
