—Is it the song of woodland-fay

From sparry grot, or haunted bower?

Hark! floating on, the magic lay

Draws near yon ivied tower!

Now nearer still, the listening ear

May catch sweet harp-notes, faint yet clear;

And accents low, as if in fear,

Thus murmur, half suppress’d:—

“Awake! the moon is bright on high,

The sea is calm, the bark is nigh,
