That love will change in growing old;
Though day by day is nought to see,
So delicate his motions be.

And man in his hasty days Is honored for them.

From these sweet-springing meads and bursting boughs of May,
Dream, while the innumerable choir of day
Welcome the dawn.

O'ercast and chill was the day;
A mist in the valley lying
Blotted the pleasant May.

After a day so bright,
The windcapt waves discover
That wild will be the night.

The shrouded day retreats,
And unperceived the stars
Steal to their sovran seats.

And whiter grows the foam,
The small moon lightens more;
And as I turn me home,
My shadow walks before.

Robert Bridges

The lonely season in lonely lands, when fled Are half the birds, and mists lie low, and the sun Is rarely seen, nor strayeth far from his bed; The short days pass unwelcomed one by one.
