Live thou gladly if so thou may. Pine not thou in looking for me Since that despair hath shut the way Thou to see me or I to see thee. Make thou a virtue of a constraint. Deem no fault where none is worthy. Min is too much. What needs thy plaint? God, he knoweth who is for me. Cast upon the Lord thy cure. Pray unto him thy cause to judge. Believe, and he shall send recure. Vain is all trust of man's refuge. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 12 by CONRAD AIKEN A DAY IN BED by KATHERINE MANSFIELD THE COLD NIGHT by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS TWO RIVERS by RALPH WALDO EMERSON PORTRAIT BY A NEIGHBOR by EDNA ST.
