A poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

Light as the linnet on my way I start

Light as the linnet on my way I start


LIGHT as the linnet on my way I start,
For all my pack I bear a chartered heart.
Forth on the world without a guide or chart,
Content to know, through all man's varying fates,
The eternal woman by the wayside waits.














-THE END-
Robert Louis Stevenson's poem: Light as the linnet on my way I start
