Explore "Dolcino to Margaret" by Charles Kingsley on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The world goes up and the world goes down, / And the sunshine follows the rain; / And yesterday's sneer and yesterday's frown / Can never come over again, / Sweet wife: / No, never come over again.
For woman is warm though man be cold, / And the night will hallow the day; / Till the heart which at even was weary and old / Can rise in the morning gay, / Sweet wife; / To its work in the morning gay.
Andernach, 1851.
