Poem by Eleanor Farjeon

* * *

The night will never stay,
The night will still go by,
Though with a million stars
You pin it to the sky;
Though you bind it with the blowing
    wind
And buckle it with the moon,
The night will slip away
Like sorrow or a tune.

1. In the Oculist's Anteroom
2. Wild Hyacinth
3. Sonnets. 9. Love Needs not Two the Render It Complete
4. Sonnets. 14. Now I have love again and life again
5. The Reflection
