Shropshire Lad
LX

by A E Housman

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

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