I
When Phillis frowns, an ugly blight
Descends where all before was light,
Steals o'er the sunshine of her face,
And quite eclipses half the grace
Wherewith the queenly maid is dight.
Descends where all before was light,
Steals o'er the sunshine of her face,
And quite eclipses half the grace
Wherewith the queenly maid is dight.
Her faëry guards in very fright
Unfold their wings, and take to flight;
Creatures of earth and air give place,
When Phillis frowns.
Unfold their wings, and take to flight;
Creatures of earth and air give place,
When Phillis frowns.
I may not—would not, if I might,—
Behold at large the woeful sight.
Let Nature's healing sleep efface
Unlovely lines in soft embrace:
Sweet Day, adieu! Come, gentle Night,
When Phillis frowns!
Behold at large the woeful sight.
Let Nature's healing sleep efface
Unlovely lines in soft embrace:
Sweet Day, adieu! Come, gentle Night,
When Phillis frowns!
