Explanation:

In the first stanza, Henley refers to the “night that covers me, black as the pit from pole to pole” (lines 1 and 2); this night is generally a metaphor for the hardships and problems of a worldly existence, but the line could clearly be understood at the discretion of the reader by assigning the night any of negative roles (any particular hardship that may encompass a person’s entire life, such as a handicap like Henley’s; persistent, taxing responsibilities; or sustained emotional injury). The next line, “the pit from pole to pole” is a basic way of likening the darkness (or the difficulty) of the night to the lightless, deep desolation of the center of the earth, and its meaning does not require any change as understanding of the poem changes.
