¶Liedtext

The orb of day is sinking, The star of eve is winking, The silent dews Their balm diffuse, The summer 8lowers are drinking; The valley shades grow drearer, As the sky above glows clearer; Around all swim, Perplexed and dim, Yet the distant hills seem nearer— O'er their tops the eye may mark The very leaves, distinct and dark. Now eastern skies are lightening, Wood, mead, and mount are brightening, Sink in the blaze The stellar rays, The clouds of heaven are whitening; Now the curfew-bell is ringing, Now the birds forsake their singing, The beetle 8ly Hums dully by, And the bat his 8light is winging; While the glowing, glorious moon, Gives to night the smile of noon.
