Poem by Arthur William Symons
Night
The night's held breath,
And the Stars' steady eyes:
Is it sleep, is it death,
In the earth, in the skies?
In my heart of hope,
In my restless will,
There is that should not stop
Though the earth stood still,
Though the heavens shook aghast,
As the frost shakes a tree,
And a strong wind cast
The stars in the sea.
