Poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

* * *

LATE, O miller,
The birds are silent,
The darkness falls.
In the house the lights are lighted.
See, in the valley they twinkle,
The lights of home.
Late, O lovers,
The night is at hand;
Silence and darkness
Clothe the land.

4. Sonet VI. As in the Hostel by the Bridge I Sate
5. The Canoe Speaks
