" "
At end of Love, at end of Life,
At end of Hope, at end of Strife,
At end of all we cling to so—
The sun is setting—must we go?<p>At dawn of Love, at dawn of Life,
At dawn of Peace that follows Strife,
At dawn of all we long for so—
The sun is rising—let us go.

Additional quotes by Louise Chandler Moulton

Bend low, O dusky Night, And give my spirit rest; Hold me to your deep breast,
And put old cares to flight;
Give back the lost delight That once my soul possest, When Love was loveliest,—
Bend low, O dusky night!

There is rust upon locks and hinges,
And mold and blight on the walls,
And silence faints in the chambers,
And darkness waits in the halls.

This Life is a fleeting breath,
And whither and how shall I go,
When I wander away with Death
By a path that I do not know?
