Then, all on a sudden, the storm was still—

And I saw her there, near the shattered sill,

At the window, gazing from the mill

Into the darkness under the storm;

Around her flickering hair and form

Unearthly glimmer. She seemed to lean

To the rushing waters that roared unseen:

A moment only she seemed to sway

Before me there in the lightning gray,

Then vanished utterly away:
