MAN'S LIFE IS BUT A WORKING DAY by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

Last Line: And all things lovely on the morrow
Subject(s): CONDUCT OF LIFE;
MAN'''S life is but a working day
Whose tasks are set aright:
A time to work, a time to pray,
And then a quiet night.
And then, please God, a quiet night
Where palms are green and robes are white,
A long-drawn breath, a balm for sorrow,''"
And all things lovely on the morrow.
