Strana 235 - Wait ; yet I do not tell you The hour you long for now Will not come with its radiance vanished And a shadow upon its brow ; Yet far through the misty future, With a crown of starry light, An hour of joy you know not Is winging her silent flight. Pray ; though the gift you ask for May never comfort your fears, May never repay your pleading, Yet pray, and with hopeful tears ; An answer, not that you long for, But diviner, will come one day ; Your eyes are too dim to see it, Yet strive, and wait, and...
