Hilaire Belloc - Because My Faltering FeetHilaire Belloc - Because My Faltering Feet
Work rating: Low


Because my faltering feet may fail to dare The first descendant of the steps of Hell Give me the Word in time that triumphs there. I too must pass into the misty hollow Where all our living laughter stops: and hark! The tiny stuffless voices of the dark Have called me, called me, till I needs must follow: Give me the Word and I`ll attempt it well. Say it`s the little winking of an eye Which in that issue is uncurtained quite; A little sleep that helps a moment by Between the thin dawn and the large daylight. Ah! tell me more than yet was hoped of men; Swear that`s true now, and I`ll believe it then.
