175.
[Iernë's eyes were glazed and dim]
Iernë's eyes were glazed and dim
When the castle bell tolled one
She looked around her dungeon grim
The grating cast a doubtful gleam
'Twas one cloud saddened cold moon-beam
Iernë gazed as in a dream
And thought she saw the sun
When the castle bell tolled one
She looked around her dungeon grim
The grating cast a doubtful gleam
'Twas one cloud saddened cold moon-beam
Iernë gazed as in a dream
And thought she saw the sun
She thought it was the break of day
The night had been so long
The night had been so long
