VIRTUE MAY GROW FROM OUT THIS FIELD OF PAIN, by                    
First Line: Virtue may grow from out this field of pain
Last Line: Love's bitter sunkissed well.
Subject(s): Pain; Suffering; Misery


Virtue may grow from out this field of pain,
Full ripened crops of wisdom, autumn bright.
But if, against that chastened light,
Your height should loom,
And clear upon my tranquil mind
Your face should come at unannounced times,
In silent anguish I should bow to drink
Love's bitter sunkissed well.
