'Tis Midnight; and on Olive's Brow: a Poem.

in #poetry6 years ago

<p dir="auto">'Tis midnight; and on Olive's brow<br /> The star is dimmed that lately shone.<br /> 'Tis midnight; in the garden now<br /> The suff'ring Saviour prays alone. <p dir="auto">'Tis midnight; and from all removed,<br /> The Saviour wrestles lone with fears;<br /> E'en the disciple whom He loved<br /> Heeds not his Master's grief and tears. <p dir="auto">'Tis midnight; and for others' guilt<br /> The Man of Sorrows weeps in blood;<br /> Yet He that hath in anguish knelt<br /> Is not forsaken by His God.'Tis midnight; and from ether-plains<br /> Is borne the song that angels know;<br /> Unheard by mortals are the strains<br /> That sweetly soothe the Saviour's woe. <pre><code> By William B.
