Singing the night away,
All in the solitudinous sea
Of that there lonely bay.

To the east and opposite to him gardens and an apple-orchard lay, and there in strange liquid tranquility hung the morning star, and rose, rilling into the dusk of night the first grey of dawn. The street beneath its autumn leaves was vacant, charmed, deserted.

Every hour—let no night
Seal thy sense in deathly slumber
Till to delight
Thou hast paid thy utmost blessing.

Walks the night in her silver shoon.

In chaos of vacancy shone;
Nought but vast sorrow was there—
The sweet cheat gone.
