New cards
1 Line
The night is come, but not too soon;
2
New cards
2 Line
 And sinking silently,
3
New cards
3 Line
All silently, the little moon
4
New cards
4 Line
  Drops down behind the sky.
5
New cards
5 Line
\
There is no light in earth or heaven
6
New cards
6 Line
 But the cold light of stars;
7
New cards
7 Line
And the first watch of night is given
8
New cards
8 Line
 To the red planet Mars.
9
New cards
9 Line
Is it the tender star of love?
10
New cards
10 Line
The star of love and dreams?
11
New cards
11 Line
O no! from that blue tent above,
12
New cards
12 Line
  A hero's armor gleams.
13
New cards
13 Line
And earnest thoughts within me rise,
14
New cards
14 Line
 When I behold afar,
15
New cards
15 Line
Suspended in the evening skies,
16
New cards
16 Line
  The shield of that red star.
17
New cards
17 Line
O star of strength! I see thee stand
18
New cards
18 Line
And smile upon my pain;
19
New cards
19 Line
Thou beckonest with thy mailèd hand,
20
New cards
20 Line
  And I am strong again. 
21
New cards
21 Line
Within my breast there is no light
22
New cards
22 Line
But the cold light of stars;
23
New cards
23 Line
I give the first watch of the night
24
New cards
24 Line
  To the red planet Mars. 
25
New cards
25 Line
The star of the unconquered will,
26
New cards
26 Line
  He rises in my breast,
27
New cards
27 Line
Serene, and resolute, and still,
28
New cards
28 Line
 And calm, and self-possessed. 
29
New cards
29 Line
And thou, too, whosoe'er thou art,
30
New cards
30 Line
 That readest this brief psalm,
31
New cards
31 Line
As one by one thy hopes depart,
32
New cards
32 Line
 Be resolute and calm. 
33
New cards
33 Line
O fear not in a world like this,
34
New cards
34 Line
 And thou shalt know erelong,
35
New cards
35 Line
Know how sublime a thing it is
36
New cards
36 Line
 To suffer and be strong.
