AT NIGHTFALL.

I need so much the quiet of your love

After the day’s long strife;

I need your calm all other things above

After the stress of life.

 

I crave the haven that in your dear heart lies,

After all toil is done;

I need the starshine of your heavenly eyes,

After the day’s great sun.

CHARLES HANSON TOWNE.
