VAGRANT VERSE
SHOOK OF TIDE DEAD. Open the door, And listen ! Only the wind’s muffled mar, And the glisten Of tears round the moon. And. in fancy, the tread Of vanishing shoon — Out in the night with the Dead Hush! and hark To the sorrowful cry Of the wind in the dark. Hush and hark, without murmur at sigh To shoon that tread the lost aeons. To the sound that bids you to die. Hush and hark! Hush and hark! —William Hope Hodgson (Killed in Action, July 1, 1916.}
