The Night Advances Quick. Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

The Night Advances Quick.



The night advances quick.
The cocks are sleeping.
The cocks are for day's beginning.


Ah! the Principle of Compensation!
what wakes up early must
be propense to lay down early.

The cocks propense to obey
the Law of Compensation then
by way of a reward or let-off
in the first light
they spread their crowing in all
directions.
