Whene'er she moans his name in sleep:

A cold-grown star, with light all spent,

She gropes the abyssmal firmament.

He hears her surging in the Deep.

Ever throughout the year 'tis thus

Till drones the dream-toned Angelus

Of Hallowe'en; then, underground,

Unto dead ears its voice doth sound

Like Christ's voice, crying, "Lazarus."

Palsied with haste the dead men rise
