    The night whose sable breast relieves the stark,
    White stars, is no less lovely being dark,

    Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
    So I make an idle boast;
    Jesus of the twice-turned cheek
    Lamb of God, although I speak
    With my mouth thus, in my heart
    Do I play a double part.

    And then I think of one who in her youthful beauty died,
    The fair meek blossom that grew up and faded by my side,
