    Daughter of Time, the hypocrite Days,
    Muffled and dumb like barefoot dervishes,
    And marching single in an endless file,
    Bring diadems and fagots in their hands;
    To each they offer gifts after his will,
    Bread, kingdom, stars, and sky that holds them all;
    I, in my pleached garden watched the pomp
    Forgot my morning wishes, hastily
    Took a few herbs and apples, and the Day
    Turned and departed silent. I too late
    Under her solemn fillet saw the scorn.

No part of their good morrow,
From a fore-spent night of sorrow.

Yet, behind the night,
Waits for the great unborn, somewhere afar,
Some white tremendous daybreak.

Twisted together, or read more

From fibers of pain and hope and trouble
And toil and happiness,--one by one,--
Twisted together, or single or double,
The varying thread of our life is spun.
Hope shall cheer though the chain be galling;
Light shall come though the gloom be falling;
Faith will list for the Master calling
Our hearts to his rest,--when the day is done.
