Mary the moon is sleeping on thy grave	A
And on the turf thy lover sad is kneeling	B
The big tear in his eye Mary awake	C
From thy dark house arise and bless his sight	D
On the pale moonbeam gliding Soft and low	E
Pour on the silver ear of night thy tale	F
Thy whisper'd tale of comfort and of love	G
To soothe thy Edward's lorn distracted soul	H
And cheer his breaking heart Come as thou didst	D
When o'er the barren moors the night wind howl'd	D
And the deep thunders shook the ebon throne	I
Of the startled night O then as lone reclining	B
I listen'd sadly to the dismal storm	J
Thou on the lambent lightnings wild careering	B
Didst strike my moody eye dead pale thou wert	D
Yet passing lovely Thou didst smile upon me	K
And oh thy voice it rose so musical	L
Betwixt the hollow pauses of the storm	J
That at the sound the winds forgot to rave	A
And the stern demon of the tempest charm'd	D
Sunk on his rocking throne to still repose	M
Lock'd in the arms of silence	N
	-
Spirit of her	O
My only love O now again arise	P
And let once more thine a euml ry accents fall	Q
Soft on my listening ear The night is calm	R
The gloomy willows wave in sinking cadence	N
With the stream that sweeps below Divinely swelling	B
On the still air the distant waterfall	Q
Mingles its melody and high above	G
The pensive empress of the solemn night	D
Fitful emerging from the rapid clouds	S
Shows her chaste face in the meridian sky	T
No wicked elves upon the Warlock knoll	H
Dare now assemble at their mystic revels	U
It is a night when from their primrose beds	V
The gentle ghosts of injured innocents	W
Are known to rise and wander on the breeze	X
Or take their stand by the oppressor's couch	Y
And strike grim terror to his guilty soul	H
The spirit of my love might now awake	C
And hold its custom'd converse	Z
	-
Mary lo	E
Thy Edward kneels upon thy verdant grave	A
And calls upon thy name The breeze that blows	M
On his wan cheek will soon sweep over him	A2
In solemn music a funereal dirge	B2
Wild and most sorrowful His cheek is pale	F
The worm that prey'd upon thy youthful bloom	C2
It canker'd green on his Now lost he stands	D2
The ghost of what he was and the cold dew	D
Which bathes his aching temples gives sure omen	E2
Of speedy dissolution Mary soon	F2
Thy love will lay his pallid cheek to thine	G2
And sweetly will he sleep with thee in death	H2
