Gerard Manley Hopkins - The Lantern Out Of DoorsGerard Manley Hopkins - The Lantern Out Of Doors
Work rating: Low


Sometimes a lantern moves along the night,  That interests our eyes. And who goes there?  I think; where from and bound, I wonder, where, With, all down darkness wide, his wading light? Men go by me whom either beauty bright  In mould or mind or what not else makes rare:  They rain against our much-thick and marsh air Rich beams, till death or distance buys them quite. Death or distance soon consumes them: wind  What most I may eye after, be in at the end I cannot, and out of sight is out of mind. Christ minds: Christ`s interest, what to avow or amend  There, éyes them, heart wánts, care haúnts, foot fóllows kínd, Their ránsom, théir rescue, ánd first, fást, last friénd.
