Ambition, and Other Poems/Day or Night
Day or Night
Again I wake and cry for light!
My golden day has gone,
And, looking through my window now,
I see the stars and moon.
My golden day has gone,
And, looking through my window now,
I see the stars and moon.
Which shall I sacrifice to sleep,
With both beyond my praise?
So lovely are these silvery nights,
So bright these golden days!
With both beyond my praise?
So lovely are these silvery nights,
So bright these golden days!
