To a Young GirlA
-
-
Say whither whither pretty oneB
The hour is young at presentC
How hushed is all the world aroundD
Ere dawn the streets hold not a soundD
O whither whither do you runB
Sleep at this hour is pleasantC
The flowers are dreaming dewy wetE
The bird nests they are silent yetE
Where to before the rising sunB
The world her light is givingF
-
To earn a livingF
-
O whither whither pretty childG
So late at night a strollingF
Alone with darkness round you curledH
All rests and sleeping is the worldH
Where drives you now the wind so wildG
The midnight bells are tollingF
Day hath not warmed you with her lightI
What aid can'st hope then from the nightI
Night's deaf and blind Oh whither childG
Light minded fancies weavingF
-
To earn a livingF
