THISTLEDOWN: 16, by CORA RANDALL FABBRI
First Line: I dreamt I loved a star
Last Line: "and only here men know me."
First Line: I dreamt I loved a star
Last Line: "and only here men know me."
I DREAMT I loved a Star,
A Star so far above me;
She said: "It is in vain
Men seek to know and love me."
I dreamt that I was dead.
Methought that I was lying
Deep in a grave, deep down—
The winds above me sighing.
In the darkness of the grave
I saw my Star below me.
She said: "My name is Peace,
And only here men know me."
