(Whose feet tread the lost aeons) |
Open the door, |
And listen! |
Only the wind's muffled roar, |
And the glisten |
Of tears 'round the moon. |
And, in fancy, the tread |
Of vanishing shoon— |
Out in the night with the Dead. |
|
"Hush! And hark |
To the sorrowful cry |
Of the wind in the dark. |
Hush and hark, without murmur or sigh, |
To shoon that tread the lost aeons: |
To the sound that bids you to die. |
Hush and hark! Hush and Hark!" |
Shoon of the Dead |
