John McCrae (Джон Маккрей)

In Due Season

If night should come and find me at my toil,
When all Life’s day I had, tho’ faintly, wrought,
And shallow furrows, cleft in stony soil
Were all my labour: Shall I count it naught

If only one poor gleaner, weak of hand,
Shall pick a scanty sheaf where I have sown?
”Nay, for of thee the Master doth demand
Thy work: the harvest rests with Him alone.”

1. Upon Watts’ Picture ”Sic Transit”
2. Isandlwana
3. The Harvest of the Sea
4. Equality
5. Eventide
