Tag: end of the world

the end of the world was long ago

October 26, 2017 ~ Jesse ~ 1 Comment

For the end of the world was long ago,
And all we dwell to-day
As children of some second birth,
Like a strange people left on earth
After a judgment day.

From “The Ballad of the White Horse” by
G.K. Chesterton.
