| All hollow vaults and dungeons sealed from sight | B |
| All caverns circumscribed with roof and wall | C |
| Defend dark Night though noon around her fall | C |
| From the fierce play of solar day beams bright | B |
| But if she be assailed by fire or light | B |
| Her powers divine are nought they tremble all | C |
| Before things far more vile and trivial | D |
| Even a glow worm can confound their might | B |
| The earth that lies bare to the sun and breeds | A |
| A thousand germs that burgeon and decay | E |
| This earth is wounded by the ploughman's share | F |
| But only darkness serves for human seeds | A |
| Night therefore is more sacred far than day | E |
| Since man excels all fruits however fair | F |
