    But when eve's silent footfall steals
    Along the eastern sky,
    And one by one to earth reveals
    Those purer fires on high.

Now came still evening on; and twilight gray
Had in her sober livery all things clad:

It is the hour when from the boughs
The nightingale's high note is heard;
It is the hour when lovers' vows
Seem sweet in every whispered word;
And gentle winds, and waters near,
Make music to the lonely ear.
Each flower the dews have lightly wet,
And in the sky the stars are met,
And on the wave is deeper blue,
And on the leaf a browner hue,
And in the heaven that clear obscure,
So softly dark, and darkly pure.
Which follows the decline of day,
As twilight melts beneath the moon away.

Against the reach of primrose sky
With heaven's pale candles stored.

I was heavy with the even,
When she lit her glimmering tapers
Round the day's dead sanctities.

I was heavy with the even,
When she lit her glimmering tapers
Round the day's dead sanctities.
I laughed in the morning's eyes.
