Explore "Verses and Sonnets" by Hilaire Belloc on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Because my faltering feet will fail to dare / The downward of the endless steps of Hell, / Give me the word in time that triumphs there.
I too must go into the dreadful hollow, / Where all our human laughter stops -- and hark! / The tiny stuffless voices of the dark / Have called me, called me till I needs must follow.
