IT is a moor	A
Barren and treeless lying high and bare	B
Beneath the arch d sky The rushing winds	C
Fly over it each with his strong bow bent	D
And quiver full of whistling arrows keen	E
	-
I am a woman lonely old and poor	F
If there be any one who watches me	G
But there is none adown the long blank wold	H
My figure painted on the level sky	I
Would startle him as if it were a ghost	J
And like a ghost a weary wandering ghost	J
I roam and roam and shiver through the dark	K
That will not hide me O but for one hour	L
One blessed hour of warm and dewy night	M
To wrap me like a pall with not an eye	I
In earth or heaven to pierce the black serene	E
Night call yet this No night no dark no rest	N
A moon ray sweeps down sudden from the sky	I
And smites the moor	A
Is't thou accurs d Thing	O
Broad pallid like a great woe looming out	P
Out of its long sealed grave to fill all earth	Q
With its dead ghastly smile Art there again	R
Round perfect large as when we buried thee	G
I and the kindly clouds that heard my prayers	S
I'll sit me down and meet thee face to face	T
Mine enemy Why didst thou rise upon	U
My world my innocent world to make me mad	V
Wherefore shine forth a tiny tremulous curve	W
Hung out in the gray sunset beauteously	X
To tempt mine eyes then nightly to increase	Y
Slow orbing till thy full blank pitiless stare	B
Hunts me across the world	Z
No rest no dark	K
Hour after hour that passionless bright face	T
Climbs up the desolate blue I will press down	A2
The lids on my tired eyeballs crouch in dust	B2
And pray	C2
Thank God thank God a cloud has hid	D2
My torturer The night at last is free	G
Forth peep in crowds the merry twinkling stars	E2
Ah we'll shine out the little silly stars	E2
And I we'll dance together across the moor	A
They up aloft I here At last at last	F2
We are aveng d of our adversary	G
	-
The freshening of the night air feels like dawn	G2
Who said that I was mad I will arise	H2
Throw off my burthen march across the wold	H
Airily Ha what stumbling Nay no fear	I2
I am used unto the dark for many a year	I2
Steering compassionless athwart the waste	J2
To where deep hid in valleys of white mist	K2
The pleasant home lights shine I will but pause	L2
Turn round and gaze	M2
O me O miserable me	G
The cloud bank overflows sudden outpour	N2
The bright white moon rays ah I drown I drown	A2
And o'er the flood with steady motion slow	X
It walketh my inexorable Doom	O2
	-
No more I shall not struggle any more	N2
I will lie down as quiet as a child	P2
I can but die	I
	-
There I have hid my face	T
Stray travellers passing o'er the silent wold	H
Would only say 'She sleeps '	-
Glare on my Doom	O2
I will not look at thee and if at times	Q2
I shiver still I neither weep nor moan	R2
Angels may see I neither weep nor moan	R2
	-
Was that sharp whistling wind the morning breeze	S2
That calls the stars back to the obscure of heaven	T2
I am very cold And yet there is a change	U2
Less fiercely the sharp moonbeams smite my brain	V2
My heart beats slower duller soothing rest	N
Like a soft garment binds my shuddering limbs	W2
If I looked up now should I see it still	X
Gibbeted ghastly in the hopeless sky	I
No	X
It is very strange all things seem strange	U2
Pale spectral face I do not fear thee now	X2
Was't this mere shadow which did haunt me once	Y2
Like an avenging fiend Well we fade out	P
Together I'll nor dread nor curse thee more	N2
	-
How calm the earth seems and I know the moor	A
Glistens with dew stars I will try and turn	Z2
My poor face eastward Close not eyes That light	M
Fringing the far hills all so fair so fair	B
Is it not dawn I am dying but 't is dawn	G2
	-
'Upon the mountains I behold the feet	A3
Of my Beloved let us forth to meet'	A3
Death	B3
This is death I see the light no more	N2
I sleep	C3
But like a morning bird my soul	X
Springs singing upward into the deeps of heaven	T2
Through world on world to follow Infinite Day	A3
