Edwin Arlington Robinson - DiscoveryEdwin Arlington Robinson - Discovery
Work rating: Low


We told of him as one who should have soared   And seen for us the devastating light   Whereof there is not either day or night,   And shared with us the glamour of the Word   That fell once upon Amos to record For men at ease in Zion, when the sight   Of ills obscured aggrieved him and the might   Of Hamath was a warning of the Lord.     Assured somehow that he would make us wise,   Our pleasure was to wait; and our surprise Was hard when we confessed the dry return   Of his regret. For we were still to learn   That earth has not a school where we may go   For wisdom, or for more than we may know.
