The storm is over, the land hushes to rest:
The tyrannous wind, its strength fordone,
Is fallen back in the west.

The broad cloud-driving moon in the clear sky
Lifts o'er the firs her shining shield,
And in her tranquil light
Sleep falls on forest and field.
See! sleep hath fallen: the trees are asleep:
The night is come. The land is wrapt in sleep.

Awake! the land is scattered with light, and see,
Uncanopied sleep is flying from field and tree.

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.
Robert Bridges
