And now was queen Of land and sea-

In the solemn midnight,
Centuries ago.

Fallen through haf-shut stahle-door
Across his path. He pzssed-for nanght
Told what was going on within
How keen the stars. bis only thought:
The air bow calm. and cold and thin,
In the solemn midnight.
Centuries ago.
Oh. strange Indifference. low and high
DroSsed over common Joys and cares,
The earth was still-but knew not why;
The word WAS listening. unaWares.
How calm s moment may precede
One that still thrills the world forever!
To that still mOmen. none would need.
Mas doom was linked no more to sever
In the solemn midnight

A thousand bells ring out. and throw
Their joyous peals abroad. and smits
