THE STAR TO THE WATCHER by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: FAREWELL! I MAY NOT MEET THEE TILL THE DAY
Last Line: "FOR LOVERS, SHADE."
Subject(s): STARS;
Farewell! I may not meet thee till the day
Hath passed away;
But in the bosom of the noontide sea
I'll dream of thee.

Alike are we the votaries of night;
A voice hath said,
"Let there for other worshippers be light,
For lovers, shade."
