I had a dream, which was not all a dream The bright sun was extinguish�d and the stars Did wander darkling in the eternal space, Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air; Morn came, and went � and came, and brought no day, And men forget their passions in dread Of this their desolation; The world was void The populous and the powerful was a lump Seasonless, herbless, treeless, manless, lifeless, A lump of death � a chaos of hard clay The rivers lakes, and ocean, all stood still, And nothing stirred within their silent depths;
The waves were dead; the tides were in their grave, The moon, their mistress, had expired before; The winds were wither�d in the stagnant air, And the clouds perish�d; darkness had no need Of aid from them � she was the universeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
