I	A
	-
I round the threshold wandering here	B
Vainly the tempest and the rain invoke	C
That they may keep my lady prisoner	D
	-
And yet the wind was howling in the woods	E
The roving thunder bellowing in the clouds	F
Before the dawn had risen in the sky	A
	-
O ye dear clouds O heaven O earth O trees	G
My lady goes Have mercy if on earth	H
Unhappy lovers ever mercy find	I
	-
Awake ye whirlwinds storm charged clouds awake	J
O'erwhelm me with your floods until the sun	K
To other lands brings back the light of day	L
	-
Heaven opens the wind falls the grass the leaves	M
Are motionless around the dazzling sun	K
In my tear laden eyes remorseless shines	N
	-
	-
II	A
	-
The light of day was fading in the west	O
The smoke no more from village chimneys curled	P
Nor voice of man nor bark of dog was heard	Q
	-
When she obedient to Love's rendezvous	R
Had reached the middle of a plain than which	S
No other more bewitching could be found	T
	-
The moon on every side her lustre shed	U
And all in robes of silver light arrayed	V
The trees with which the place was garlanded	V
	-
The rustling boughs were murmuring to the wind	V
And blending with the plaintive nightingale	W
A rivulet poured forth its sweet lament	V
	-
The sea shone in the distance and the fields	X
And groves and slowly rising one by one	K
The summits of the mountains were revealed	V
	-
In quiet shade the sombre valley lay	L
While all the little hills around were clothed	V
With the soft lustre of the dewy moon	Y
	-
The maiden kept the silent lonely path	Z
And gently passing o'er her face she felt	V
The motion of the perfume laden breeze	G
	-
If she were happy it were vain to ask	A2
The scene delighted her and the delight	V
Her heart was promising was greater still	B2
	-
How swift your flight O lovely hours serene	C2
No other pleasure here below endures	D2
Or lingers with us long save hope alone	E2
	-
The night began to change and dark became	F2
The face of heaven that was so beautiful	G2
And all her pleasure now was turned to fear	H2
	-
An angry cloud precursor of the storm	I2
Behind the mountains rose and still increased	V
Till moon or star no longer could be seen	C2
	-
She saw it spreading upon every side	V
And by degrees ascending through the air	J2
And now with its black mantle covering all	K2
	-
The scanty light more faint and faint became	F2
The wind meanwhile was rising in the grove	L2
That on the farther side the spot enclosed	V
	-
And every moment was more boisterous	M2
Till every bird awaking in its fright	V
Amidst the trembling leaves was fluttering	N2
	-
The cloud increasing still unto the coast	V
Descended so that one extremity	V
The mountains touched the other touched the sea	V
	-
And now from out its black and hollow womb	O2
The pattering rain drops falling fast were heard	V
The sound increasing as the cloud drew near	H2
	-
And round her now the glancing lightning flashed	V
In fearful mood and made her shut her eyes	P2
The ground was black the air a mass of flame	F2
	-
Her trembling knees could scarce her weight sustain	Q2
The thunder roared with a continuous sound	V
Like torrent plunging headlong from the cliff	R2
	-
At times she paused the dismal scene to view	R
In blank dismay then on she ran again	S2
Her hair and clothes all streaming in the wind	V
	-
The cruel wind beat hard against her breast	V
And rushing fiercely with its angry breath	T2
The cold drops dashed remorseless in her face	U2
	-
The thunder like a beast assaulted her	D
With terrible unintermitting roar	V2
And more and more the rain and tempest raged	V
	-
And from all sides in wild confusion flew	R
The dust and leaves the branches and the stones	W2
With hideous tumult inconceivable	G2
	-
Her weary blinded eyes now covering	N2
And folding close her clothes against her breast	V
She through the storm her fearful path pursued	V
	-
But now the lightning glared so in her face	U2
That overcome by fright at last she went	V
No farther and her heart within her sank	X2
	-
And back she turned And even as she turned	V
The lightning ceased to flash the air was dark	Y2
The thunder's voice was hushed the wind stood still	B2
And all was silent round and she at rest	V
