HOW LATE, by                 Poet Analysis    
First Line: Now thou hast made me blind
Last Line: How late thou art forsaking me!
Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H.


NOW thou hast made me blind,
And I can only see,
In all the world, what comes from thee;

Now thou hast made me deaf,
And I can only hear
Thy voice, or body's motion near;

Now thou hast made me dumb,
And my two lips are mute,
Till yours have bid them follow suit;

Now blind and deaf and dumb
To all the world but thee --
How late thou art forsaking me!
