A Shropshire Lad - LX

Author A. E. Housman
Β Β Β Β Now hollow fires burn out to black,
Β Β Β Β And lights are guttering low:
Β Β Β Β Square your shoulders, lift your pack,
Β Β Β Β And leave your friends and go.

Β Β Β Β Oh never fear, man, nought's to dread,
Β Β Β Β Look not left nor right:
Β Β Β Β In all the endless road you tread
Β Β Β Β There's nothing but the night.
