By Poems. VI. Wind and StarsIsa (Craig) Knox (18311903)
T
I stand upon the windy height,
Alone with sorrow and the night.
Ye are the hopes that stirred my heart;
O wind, its beating wings thou art.
Unheeding shine, nor moved by fears
Nor shaken into trembling tears.
Sink to the level of thy lot,
In pity sink, and be forgot.
