Fade off the ridges rosy light	A
Fade slowly from the last gray height	A
And leave no gloomy cloud to grieve	B
The heart of this enchanted eve	B
	-
All things beneath the still sky seem	C
Bound by the spell of a sweet dream	C
In the dusk forest dreamingly	D
Droops slowly down each plum d head	E
The river flowing softly by	F
Dreams of the sea the quiet sea	G
Dreams of the unseen stars and I	F
Am dreaming of the dreamless dead	E
	-
The river has a silken sheen	H
But red rays of the sunset stain	I
Its pictures from the steep shore caught	J
Till shades of rock and fern and tree	G
Glow like the figures on a pane	I
Of some old church by twilight seen	H
Or like the rich devices wrought	K
In mediaeval tapestry	G
	-
All lonely in a drifting boat	L
Through shine and shade I float and float	L
Dreaming and dreaming till I seem	C
Part of the picture and the dream	C
	-
There is no sound to break the spell	D
No voice of bird or stir of bough	M
Only the lisp of waters wreathing	N
In little ripples round the prow	M
And a low air like Silence breathing	N
That hardly dusks the sleepy swell	D
Whereon I float to that strange deep	O
That sighs upon the shores of Sleep	O
	-
	-
	-
But in the silent heaven blooming	N
Behold the wondrous sunset flower	P
That blooms and fades within the hour	P
The flower of fantasy perfuming	N
With subtle melody of scent	Q
The blue aisles of the firmament	Q
	-
For colour music scent are one	R
From deeps of air to airless heights	S
Lo how he sweeps the splendid sun	R
His burning lyre of many lights	S
	-
See the clear golden lily blowing	N
It shines as shone thy gentle soul	D
O my most sweet when from the goal	D
Of life far gazing thou didst see	G
While Death still feared to touch thine eyes	T
Where such immortal light was glowing	N
The vision of eternity	G
The pearly gates of Paradise	U
	-
Now richer hues the skies illume	C
The pale gold blushes into bloom	C
Delicate as the flowering	N
Of first love in the tender spring	N
Of Life when love is wizardry	G
That over narrow days can throw	V
A glamour and a glory so	V
Did thine my Beautiful for me	G
So long ago so long ago	V
	-
So long ago so long ago	V
Ah who can Love and Grief estrange	W
Or Memory and Sorrow part	Q
Lo in the West another change	W
A deeper glow a rose of fire	P
A rose of passionate desire	P
Lone burning in a lonely heart	Q
	-
A lonely heart a lonely flood	Q
The wave that glassed her gleaming head	Q
And smiling passed it does not know	V
That gleaming head lies dark and low	V
The myrtle tree that bends above	X
I pray that it may early bud	Q
For under its green boughs sat we	G
We twain we only hand in hand	Q
When Love was lord of all the land	Q
It does not know that she is dead	Q
And all is over now with Love	X
Is over now with Love and me	G
	-
Once more once more O shining years	Y
Gone by once more O vanished days	Z
Whose hours flew by on iris wings	A2
Come back and bring my love to me	G
My voice faints down the wooded ways	Z
And dies along the darkling flood	Q
The past is past I cry in vain	I
For when did Death an answer deign	I
To Love's heart broken questionings	A2
The dead are deaf dust chokes their ears	Y
Only the rolling river hears	B2
Far off the calling of the sea	G
A shiver strikes through all my blood	Q
Mine eyes are full of sudden tears	C2
	-
The shadows gather over all	D
The valley and the mountains old	Q
Shadow on shadow fast they fall	D
On glooming green and waning gold	Q
And on my heart they gather drear	P
Damp as with grave damps dark with fear	P
	-
	-
	-
O Sorrow Sorrow couldst thou leave me	G
Not one brief hour to dream alone	D2
Hast thou not all my days to grieve me	G
My nights are they not all thine own	D2
Thou hauntest me at morning light	Q
Thou blackenest the white moonbeams	E2
A hollow voice at noon at night	Q
A crowned ghost sitting on a throne	D2
Ruling the kingdom of my dreams	E2
	-
	-
	-
Maker of men Thou gavest breath	F2
Thou gavest love to all that live	G2
Thou rendest loves and lives apart	Q
Allwise art Thou who questioneth	F2
Thy will or who can read Thy heart	Q
But couldst Thou not in mercy give	H2
A sign to us one little spark	N
Of sure hope that the end of all	D
Is not concealed beneath the pall	D
Or wound up with the winding sheet	Q
Who heedeth aught the preacher saith	F2
When eyes wax dim and limbs grow stark	N
And fear sits on the darkened bed	Q
The dying man turns to the wall	D
What hope have we above our dead	Q
Tense fingers clutching at the dark	N
And hopeless hands that vainly beat	Q
Against the iron doors of Death	F2
