If I err not, the lamp of day is nigh.
List to the nightingale, that wakes with us,
With us laments mid thorns; and now the dew,
Like our tears, pearls the grass. Ah me, alas,
Turn toward the east thy face.
There now begins the morning to break forth,
Bringing another sun above the earth
That yet by my sun shall rest vanquished.
