A poem by Matthew Arnold

Epilogue

________________________________________________
Title:     Epilogue
Author: Matthew Arnold [More Titles by Arnold]

So I sang; but the Muse,
Shaking her head, took the harp--
Stern interrupted my strain,
Angrily smote on the chords.

April showers
Rush o'er the Yorkshire moors.
Stormy, through driving mist,
Loom the blurr'd hills; the rain
Lashes the newly-made grave.

Unquiet souls!
--In the dark fermentation of earth,
In the never idle workshop of nature,
In the eternal movement,
Ye shall find yourselves again!





[The end]
Matthew Arnold's poem: Epilogue
