- | |
I see thine image through my tears to night | B |
And yet to day I saw thee smiling How | C |
Refer the cause mdash Beloved is it thou | C |
Or I who makes me sad The acolyte | B |
Amid the chanted joy and thankful rite | B |
May so fall flat with pale insensate brow | C |
On the altar stair I hear thy voice and vow | C |
Perplexed uncertain since thou art out of sight | B |
As he in his swooning ears the choir's Amen | D |
Beloved dost thou love or did I see all | E |
The glory as I dreamed and fainted when | D |
Too vehement light dilated my ideal | F |
For my soul's eyes Will that light come again | D |
As now these tears come mdash falling hot and real | F |
