O Colum and monks of Christ It is peace we are having this night: Sure, peace is a good thing, And I am glad with the gladness. We worship one God, Though ye call him Dè— And I say not, O Dia! But cry Bea'uil! For it is one faith for man, And one for the living world, And no man is wiser than another— And none knoweth much. None knoweth a better thing than this: The Sword, Love, Song, Honour, Sleep. None knoweth a surer thing than this: Birth, Sorrow, Pain, Weariness, Death. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DOMESDAY BOOK: LILLI ALM by EDGAR LEE MASTERS LESSER EPISTLES: TO A YOUNG LADY WITH SOME LAMPREYS by JOHN GAY THE VOYAGE OF MAELDUNE by ALFRED TENNYSON AS THE TEAM'S HEAD BRASS by PHILIP EDWARD THOMAS THE TWO APRIL MORNINGS by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH THE LESSER BEAUTY by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON |
