The Moon Endureth, subtitled ‘Tales and Fancies’, is a 1912 short story and poetry collection by the Scottish author John Buchan.
In an introduction to the collection Buchan quotes from an article on St Francis in Lives of the Saints: ‘To the righteous is promised abundance of peace while the moon endureth’. Psalms 72:7 in the King James Version has ‘In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth’.
The collection includes the following short stories and poems. The stories Streams of Water in the South and The Rime of True Thomas were reprinted from a former collection, Grey Weather. The remaining tales had all previously appeared in Blackwood’s Magazine.
