Poet Analysis

First Line: TONIGHT IN MILLION-VOICED LONDON I
Last Line: PEOPLE OF ALL HEAVEN, ALTHOUGH HE BE BUT ONE
Subject(s): TELEPHONES;

To-night in million-voiced London I
Was lonely as the million-pointed sky
Until your single voice. Ah! So the sun
Peoples all heaven, although he be but one.
