    The stars were glittering in the heaven's dusk meadows,
    Far west, among those flowers of the shadows,
    The thin, clear crescent lustrous over her,
    Made Ruth raise question, looking through the bars
    Of heaven, with eyes half-oped, what God, what comer
    Unto the harvest of the eternal summer,
    Had flung his golden hook down on the field of stars.

Fated, methought, to round as to a golden cup,
And hold to my two lips life's best of wine.

The devil's in the moon for mischief; they
Who call'd her chaste, methinks, began too soon
Their nomenclature; there is not a day,
The longest, not the twenty-first of June,
Sees half the business in a wicked way,
On which three single hours of moonshine smile--
And then she looks so modest all the while!

The moon is at her full, and riding high,
Floods the calm fields with light.
