You were Stay'd
You were stay'd in heart on heaven,
I by none but you forgiven,—
You unto your Light are taken,
I of all, in you, forsaken.
I by none but you forgiven,—
You unto your Light are taken,
I of all, in you, forsaken.
Where the night is never broken,
Where for long no speech hath spoken,
There the ears no longer hearken,
There the eyeballs wane and darken.
Where for long no speech hath spoken,
There the ears no longer hearken,
There the eyeballs wane and darken.
Yet at hours my soul, so bounded
By that gloom like blood surrounded—
Sees an ancient daylight burning—
Hears departed feet returning.
By that gloom like blood surrounded—
Sees an ancient daylight burning—
Hears departed feet returning.
