8074 Franis William Bourdillon 1852- ? John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:8074
AUTHOR:Francis William Bourdillon (1852– ?)
QUOTATION:The Night has a thousand eyes,
  And the Day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
  With the dying sun.


The mind has a thousand eyes,
  And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
  When love is done.
ATTRIBUTION:Light.
