HEROES by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: AGAINST THE NIGHT, A CHAMPION BRIGHT
Last Line: AGAINST THE NOONDAY BARES A BLADE.
Subject(s): NIGHT; BEDTIME;

Against the night, a champion bright,
The glow-worm, lifts a spear of light;
And, undismayed, the slenderest shade
Against the noonday bares a blade.
