Deep in the nightingale-haunted dusk.

Then ceased, and wept until the stars,

Seen through her tears, made heaven all tears,

On fire with tears, that left their scars

Upon its face; and all the years

Of grief and love seemed in their spheres:

And reaching out her arms she cried,

"O God! O God! that I had died!

O Tristram! Tristram! art thou near?

O love, be near me in this hour!
