GOOD-NIGHT by SILAS WEIR MITCHELL

First Line: GOOD-NIGHT. GOOD-NIGHT. AH, GOOD THE NIGHT
Last Line: GOOD-NIGHT.
Subject(s): FAREWELL; LOVE - LOSS OF; NIGHT; RELIGION; PARTING; BEDTIME; THEOLOGY;
GOOD-NIGHT. Good-night. Ah, good the night
That wraps thee in its silver light.
Good-night. No night is good for me
That does not hold a thought of thee.
Good-night.

Good-night. Be every night as sweet
As that which made our love complete,
Till that last night when death shall be
One brief "Good-night," for thee and me.
Good-night.
