Upon thy so sore loss
Shall shine the traffic of Jacob’s ladder
Pitched betwixt Heaven and Charing Cross.

Additional quotes by Francis Thompson

The hills look over on the South,
And Southward dreams the sea;
And with the sea-breeze hand in hand,
Came innocence and she.

Look for me in the nurseries of Heaven.

The innocent moon, that nothing does but shine,
Moves all the labouring surges of the world.

Upon thy so sore loss Shall shine the traffic of Jacob’s ladder Pitched betwixt Heaven and Charing Cross. - Francis Thompson
