Emily Jane Brontë: The Complete Poems | ||
41.
[O evening why is thy light so sad?]
O evening why is thy light so sad?
Why is the sun's last ray so cold
Hush our smile is as ever glad
But thy heart is growing old
Why is the sun's last ray so cold
Hush our smile is as ever glad
But thy heart is growing old
65
It's over now I've known it all
I'll hide it in my heart no more
But back again that night recall
And think the fearful vision o'er
I'll hide it in my heart no more
But back again that night recall
And think the fearful vision o'er
The evening sun in cloudless shine
Had passed from summer's heaven divine
And dark the shades of twilight grew
And stars were in the depth of blue
Had passed from summer's heaven divine
And dark the shades of twilight grew
And stars were in the depth of blue
And in the heath on mountains far
From human eye and human care
With thoughtful heart and tearful eye
I sadly watched that solemn sky
From human eye and human care
With thoughtful heart and tearful eye
I sadly watched that solemn sky
