So I arm thee for the final night, And for thy one defeat; For God upon his side shall fight When thou and he shall meet. I know, for good or evil, thine Will be a well-fought field -- For good or evil, master mine, If I may bear thy shield! Now art thou the unfaithfullest Of all that bore the vow -- Yet some there are that love thee best, Most honor, even now. I see the face I held divine Ah, yet divine revealed! For good or evil, master mine, If I may bear thy shield! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ABIDE WITH US by HORATIO (HORATIUS) BONAR A PRAYER FOR A LITTLE HOME by FLORENCE BONE PIETRO OF ABANO by ROBERT BROWNING TO A CHILD by AMELIA JOSEPHINE BURR THE LADY TO THE LOVER by ALICE CARY |
