IX. DEATH OF THE DAY.
My pictures blacken in their frames
As night comes on,
And youthful maids and wrinkled dames
Are now all one.
As night comes on,
And youthful maids and wrinkled dames
Are now all one.
Death of the day! a sterner Death
Did worse before;
The fairest form, the sweetest breath,
Away he bore.
Did worse before;
The fairest form, the sweetest breath,
Away he bore.
