I	A
	-
Came a spicy smell of showers	B
On the purple wings of night	C
And a pearl encrusted crescent	D
On the lake looked still and white	C
While a sound of distant singing	E
From the vales rose sad and light	C
	-
	-
II	A
	-
Dripped the musk of sodden roses	F
From their million heavy sprays	G
And the nightingales were sobbing	E
Of the roses amorous praise	G
Where the raven down of even	H
Caught the moonlight's bleaching rays	G
	-
	-
III	A
	-
And the turrets of the palace	I
From its belt of ancient trees	J
On the mountain rose romantic	K
White as foam from troubled seas	J
And the murmur of an ocean	L
Smote the chords of ev'ry breeze	J
	-
	-
IV	M
	-
Where the moon shone on the terrace	I
And its fountain's lisping foam	N
Where the bronzen urns of flowers	B
Breathed faint perfume thro' the gloam	N
By the alabaster Venus	I
'Neath the quiet stars we'd roam	N
	-
	-
V	M
	-
And we stopped beside the statue	O
Of the marble Venus there	P
Deeply pedestaled 'mid roses	F
Who their crimson hearts laid bare	P
Breathing out their lives in fragrance	Q
At her naked feet and fair	P
	-
	-
VI	M
	-
And we marked the purple dingles	Q
Where the lazy vapors lolled	O
Like thin fleecy ribs of moonlight	O
Touched with amethyst and gold	O
And we marked the wild deer glimmer	R
Like dim specters where they strolled	O
	-
	-
VII	M
	-
But from out those treach'rous roses	Q
Crept a serpent and it stung	S
Poisoned him who'd tuned my heart strings	Q
Till for him alone they sung	S
Froze the nerves of hands that only	M
From its chords a note had wrung	S
	-
	-
VIII	M
	-
Now the nightingales in anguish	T
To cold ashen roses moan	U
Now a sound of desolate wailing	E
In the darkened palace lone	U
From a harp olian quavers	Q
Broken on an empty throne	U
