'Twas noontide of summer,
And mid-time of night;

And stars, in their orbits,
Shone pale, thro' the light

Of the brighter, cold moon,
'Mid planets her slaves,

Herself in the Heavens,
Her beam on the waves.
I gazed awhile
On her cold smile;

Too cold- too cold for me-
There pass'd, as a shroud,
A fleecy cloud,

And I turned away to thee,
Proud Evening Star,
In thy glory afar,

And dearer thy beam shall be;
For joy to my heart
Is the proud part

Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
And more I admire
Thy distant fire,

Than that colder, lowly light.

The End
