In The Watcher at the Gate, George MacDonald imagines a quiet guardian of fate — one who sees sorrow, patience, and passage without judgment, waiting for the moment when all journeys return to rest. A poem of endurance, mystery, and hope.

A candle is not lighted for itself; neither is a man. The light that serves self only, is no true light; its one virtue is that it will soon go out.
