The Hour Before The Dawn

________________________________________________
Title:     The Hour Before The Dawn
Author: James Whitcomb Riley [More Titles by Riley]

The hour before the dawn!
O ye who grope therein, with fear and dread
And agony of soul, be comforted,
Knowing, ere long, the darkness will be gone,
And down its dusky aisles the light be shed;
Therefore, in utter trust, fare on--fare on,
This hour before the dawn!






[The end]
James Whitcomb Riley's poem: Hour Before The Dawn
