To W. R. Thick Is The Darkness

    By William Ernest Henley



    Thick is the darkness -
    Sunward, O, sunward!
    Rough is the highway -
    Onward, still onward!

    Dawn harbours surely
    East of the shadows.
    Facing us somewhere
    Spread the sweet meadows.

    Upward and forward!
    Time will restore us:
    Light is above us,
    Rest is before us.

    1876
