And light'nings glare around | B |
Amidst the dreary cheerless scene | C |
Some comfort may be found | B |

There will at some far distant spot | D |
A streak of light appear | E |
Or when the sullen vapours break | F |
The ether will be clear | E |

And if the sun illumes the east | G |
And sheds his gladsome ray | H |
Some boding mist or passing cloud | I |
Will threat the rising day | H |

The heart rejoicing in the view | J |
And dancing with delight | K |
Oft feels the touch of palsied fear | E |
And sinks at thought of night | K |

So Hope's bright torch more clearly shines | L |
Amidst surrounding gloom | M |
And beldame Fortune vainly throws | N |
Her mantle o'er the tomb | M |
