Here is the long-bided hour: the labor of years is accomplished. Why should this sadness unplumbed secretly weigh on my heart? Is it, my work being done, I stand like a laborer, useless, One who has taken his pay, alien to unwonted tasks? Is it the work I regret, the silent companion of midnight, Friend of the golden-haired Dawn, friend of the gods of the hearth? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HUDSON RIVER ANTHOLOGY by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS ECLOGUE: THE TIMES by WILLIAM BARNES THE PAY ENVELOPE (1) by EDGAR ALBERT GUEST WOMENS' SUFFRAGE by WILLIAM MCGONAGALL A NEREID (2) by ALEKSANDR SERGEYEVICH PUSHKIN |
