THE ENDED DAY, by                    
First Line: Now be the trespass of the day forgiven, - / the dust, the rain!
Last Line: His ghost allow.
Alternate Author Name(s): Le Bailly, Mrs.
Subject(s): Day


NOW be the trespass of the day forgiven,—
The dust, the rain!
Go, lovely life, in faint rebellion, driven
To Sleep again.

Be only his. Let even Joy forsake thee;—
Or, milder now,
Some shadowy dream his fair reflection make thee,—
His ghost allow.
