Now Hollow Fires Burn Out To Black

Title:     Now Hollow Fires Burn Out To Black
Author: A. E. Housman [More Titles by Housman]

Now hollow fires burn out to black,
And lights are guttering low:
Square your shoulders, lift your pack,
And leave your friends and go.

Oh never fear, man, nought's to dread,
Look not left nor right:
In all the endless road you tread
There's nothing but the night.

[The end]
A. E. Housman's poem: Now Hollow Fires Burn Out To Black
