To dream till doomsday, suddenly disclosed,

And woke their sleepers centuries too soon

To stare upon the old remember’d moon.

Wearied of darkness, I will see the day:

Sick of the dead, the living will assay:

And if the ghastly year I have gone through

Bear half its promised harvest, will requite

With a too warm good-morrow the long night

That one cold living heart consign’d me to.

Luc. Justina!
