From far, from eve and morning
And yon twelve-winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
Blew hither: here am I.
Now– for a breath I tarry
Nor yet disperse apart –
Take my hand quick and tell me,
What have you in your heart.
Speak now, and I will answer,
How shall I help you, say;
Ere to the wind's twelve quarters
I take my endless way.
– A.E. Housman (1896)
