To-Day
So here hath been dawning
Another blue day:
Think, wilt thou let it
Slip useless away.
Out of Eternity
This new day was born;
Into Eternity,
At night, will return.
Behold it aforetime
No eye ever did;
So soon it for ever
From all eyes is hid.
Here hath been dawning
Another blue day:
Think, wilt thou let it
Slip useless away.
Thomas Carlyle.
