| O night O sweet though sombre span of time | B |

| Whoso hath praised thee well doth apprehend | C |
| And whoso honours thee hath wisdom's prime | B |
| Our cares thou canst to quietude sublime | B |
| For dews and darkness are of peace the friend | C |
| Often by thee in dreams upborne I wend | C |
| From earth to heaven where yet I hope to climb | B |
| Thou shade of Death through whom the soul at length | D |
| Shuns pain and sadness hostile to the heart | E |
| Whom mourners find their last and sure relief | F |
| Thou dost restore our suffering flesh to strength | D |
| Driest our tears assuagest every smart | E |
| Purging the spirits of the pure from grief | F |
