Explore "A Summer Night" by Robert Louis Stevenson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
About us lies the summer night; / The darkling earth is dusk below; / But high above, the sky is bright / Between the eve and morning glow.
Clear white of dawn, and apple green, / Sole lingering of the evening's hue, / Behind the clustered trees are seen, / Across dark meadows drencht in dew.
So glow above the dusk of sin, / Remembrance of Redemption vast, / And future hope of joy therein / That shall be shed on us at last.
Each haloed in its husk of light, / Atoms and worlds about us lie; / Though here we grope awhile in night, / 'Tis always daylight up on high.
