TIME AND ETERNITY: XXXIX. I shall know why, when time is over


I shall know why, when time is over,
And I have ceased to wonder why;

In the fair schoolroom of the sky.

He will tell me what Peter promised,
And I, for wonder at his woe,
I shall forget the drop of anguish
That scalds me now, that scalds me now.
