¶Lyrics / Text

Hark! the Curfew's solemn sound, Silent darkness spread around. Heavy on the lover's heart, Who leaves with a sigh his tale half told; The poring monk and his book must part, And fearful miser locks his gold, Now whilst labour sleeps, and charmed sorrow. O'er the dewy green, by the glow-worm's light, Unheard, unseen, dance the elves of night. Yet where their midnight pranks have been, The circled turf will betray tomorrow.
