The cold earth slept below	A
Above the cold sky shone	B
And all around	C
With a chilling sound	C
From caves of ice and fields of snow	A
The breath of night like death did flow	A
Beneath the sinking moon	D
	-
The wintry hedge was black	E
The green grass was not seen	F
The birds did rest	G
On the bare thorn's breast	G
Whose roots beside the pathway track	E
Had bound their folds o'er many a crack	E
Which the frost had made between	F
	-
Thine eyes glow'd in the glare	H
Of the moon's dying light	I
As a fen fire's beam	J
On a sluggish stream	J
Gleams dimly so the moon shone there	H
And it yellow'd the strings of thy tangled hair	H
That shook in the wind of night	I
	-
The moon made thy lips pale belov e d	K
The wind made thy bosom chill	L
The night did shed	M
On thy dear head	M
Its frozen dew and thou didst lie	N
Where the bitter breath of the naked sky	N
Might visit thee at will	L
