MY STAR by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: SINCE THAT THE DEWDROP HOLDS THE STAR
Last Line: THOU KEEPEST MINE.
Subject(s): STARS;

SINCE that the dewdrop holds the star
The long night through,
Perchance the satellite afar
Reflects the dew.

And while thine image in my heart
Doth steadfast shine;
There, haply, in thy heaven apart
Thou keepest mine.
