John Bartlett (1820–1905).  Familiar Quotations, 10th ed.  1919.
 
 
NUMBER:5438
AUTHOR:Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
QUOTATION:Thus, when the lamp that lighted
  The traveller at first goes out,
He feels awhile benighted,
  And looks around in fear and doubt.
But soon, the prospect clearing,
  By cloudless starlight on he treads,
And thinks no lamp so cheering
  As that light which Heaven sheds.
ATTRIBUTION:I ’d mourn the Hopes.
BIOGRAPHY:Columbia Encyclopedia.
