| Glum is the sky by night imprisoned | B |
| As over it the dark clouds creep | C |
| Not menacing or wistful is it | D |
| But plunged in dreary torpid sleep | C |
| Alone the streaks of lightning bursting | E |
| Through cloud and shadow seem to be | F |
| As they flare up and blaze conversing | E |
| Like deaf mute demons soundlessly | G |
| - | |
| As at a signal for an instant | H |
| A strip of sky is lit and Lo | G |
| From out the murk the forests distant | H |
| Emerge set suddenly aglow | G |
| But the light dies the darkness fleeing | E |
| That cloaks the startled wakeful sky | I |
| And all is still Is a plot being | E |
| Hatched in the silent wastes on high | I |
