When pleasure, like the midnight flower
That scorns the eye read more

When nought but the torrent is heard on the hill
And nought but the nightingale's song in the grove.

How gently rock yon poplars high
Against the reach of primrose sky
With heaven's pale candles stored.

With heaven's pale candles stored.

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.
