VOX CLAMANTIS.
Shouted a voice to me,
In the silence of a dream
From the sedgy banks of a stream,
In the bed of a sunken sea—
Time lost in Eternity,
As I am lost in thee,
O, why not thou in me,
Perdita?
In the silence of a dream
From the sedgy banks of a stream,
In the bed of a sunken sea—
Time lost in Eternity,
As I am lost in thee,
O, why not thou in me,
Perdita?
Perdita, dear one, flown,
Leaving me here alone,
What else can I do but be
Rivulet, brooklet to thee,
Best of the best in me,
As I am the worst of thee,
Queen of my soul's high throne,
My darling, my love, my own,
Perdita!
Leaving me here alone,
What else can I do but be
Rivulet, brooklet to thee,
Best of the best in me,
As I am the worst of thee,
Queen of my soul's high throne,
My darling, my love, my own,
Perdita!
