The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
                                                                       Psalms 121:6
Our other world returns in silence; grave with heavy light,brooding at dusk: not the swiftest swallow-dash escapes that gaze;nor the brief peeping bat sweeping swamps by moonlight bay.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

                                                                       Psalms 121:6

Our other world returns in silence; grave with heavy light,
brooding at dusk: not the swiftest swallow-dash escapes that gaze;
nor the brief peeping bat sweeping swamps by moonlight bay.

Air rushes in and trails out as sigh; the valley lies spread wide;a daytime ghostly moon shines pale.  Life need not be mean or cramped.

Air rushes in and trails out as sigh; the valley lies spread wide;
a daytime ghostly moon shines pale.  Life need not be mean or cramped.
