OUR STARS by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: MY TWILIGHT IS BEFORE THE DARK
Last Line: LET NOT THE NOON EXTINGUISH THINE.
Subject(s): STARS;

My twilight is before the dark,
And thine before the day;
O'er both alike a beacon-spark
To keep us in the way.
The darkness can but brighten mine;
Let not the noon extinguish thine.
