Explore "Travellers' Song" by George MacDonald on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Bands of dark and bands of light / Lie athwart the homeward way; / Now we cross a belt of Night, / Now a strip of shining Day!
Now it is a month of June, / Now December's shivering hour; / Now rides high loved memories' Moon, / Now the Dark is dense with power!
Summers, winters, days, and nights, / Moons, and clouds, they come and go; / Joys and sorrows, pains, delights, / Hope and fear, and _yes_ and _no_.
All is well: come, girls and boys, / Not a weary mile is vain!
Hark -- dim laughter's radiant noise!
See the windows through the rain!
