This dead of midnight is the noon of thought,
And Wisdom mounts her zenith with the stars.
At this still hour the self-collected soul
Turns inward, and beholds a stranger there
Of high descent, and more than mortal rank;
An embryo God; a spark of fire divine.
Bio: Alfred Taboriwsky, known as Al Tabor, was an English bandleader, best known as the supposed originator of the song the "Hokey cokey", even though versions of the song had been published long before Tabor.
