[01:46.24]At midnight, in the month of June,
[01:54.16]I stand beneath the mystic moon.
[02:01.42]An opiate vapor, dewy, dim,
[02:09.07]Exhales from out her golden rim,
[02:17.11]And, softly dripping, drop by drop,
[02:24.49]Upon the quiet mountain top,
[02:30.34]Steals drowsily and musically
[02:38.27]Into the universal valley.
[03:20.23]The rosemary nods upon the grave;
[03:27.25]The lily lolls upon the wave;
[03:35.10]Wrapping the fog about its breast,
[03:39.57]The ruin molders into rest;
[03:46.70]Looking like Lethe, see! the lake
[03:54.08]A conscious slumber seems to take,
[04:01.67]And would not, for the world, awake.
[04:09.75]And would not, for the world, awake.
[04:22.88]All Beauty sleeps!
[04:28.53]–and lo! where lies
[04:32.50]With casement open to the skies
[04:38.20]All Beauty sleeps!
[04:40.09]All Beauty sleeps!
[04:43.91]–and lo! where lies
[04:47.74]With casement open to the skies
[05:01.85]Oh, lover bright! can it be right-
[05:09.44]This window open to the night?
[05:16.87]The wanton airs, from the tree-top,
[05:25.27]Laughingly through the lattice drop-
[05:31.83]The bodiless airs, a wizard rout,
[05:39.41]Flit through thy chamber in and out,
[05:47.10]And wave the curtain canopy
[05:54.73]So fitfully–so carefully-
[06:41.81]Above the closed and fringed lid
[06:49.29]'Neath which thy slumb'ring soul lies hid,
[06:56.77]That, o'er the floor and down the wall,
[07:04.25]Like ghosts the shadows rise and fall!
[07:41.86]Oh, lover dear, hast thou no fear?
[07:49.28]Why and what art thou dreaming here?
[07:56.71]Sure thou art come O'er far-off seas,
[08:04.25]A wonder to these garden trees!
[08:42.29]Strange is thy pallor! strange thy dress,
[08:49.25]Strange, above all, thy length of tress,
[09:00.97][08:56.13]And this all this
[09:04.29]and solemn silentness!
[09:11.84]My lover sleeps!
[09:14.70]Oh, may his sleep,
[09:19.34]As it is lasting,so be deep!
[09:27.23]Soft may the worms about his creep!
[09:41.65]I pray to God that he may lie
[09:49.34]For ever with unopened eye.
