FAITHFUL eyes, fail not. Though sorrows come upon you, though temptations try, though age and grief assault you—fail not, fail not How many hang upon you for your light, Shining in darkness—as the stars that shine Upon the mighty deep for mariners! O eyes, be true, give all away for that— Give all your days and all good name and honor, If need should be, for that. That we may steer Through the dark night by you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...COR CORDIUM by ALGERNON CHARLES SWINBURNE THE QUAKER WIDOW by BAYARD TAYLOR TWO WOMEN by NATHANIEL PARKER WILLIS ALL HAIL TO THE CZAR! by ALFRED AUSTIN COMPLAINS OF THE COURT by PHILIP AYRES MESSAGES by HARRY RANDOLPH BLYTHE ASOLANDO: A PEARL, A GIRL by ROBERT BROWNING |
