Alfred Lord Tennyson - In Memoriam A. H. H.: 67Alfred Lord Tennyson - In Memoriam A. H. H.: 67
Work rating: Low


When on my bed the moonlight falls,        I know that in thy place of rest        By that broad water of the west, There comes a glory on the walls: Thy marble bright in dark appears,        As slowly steals a silver flame        Along the letters of thy name, And o`er the number of thy years. The mystic glory swims away;       From off my bed the moonlight dies;       And closing eaves of wearied eyes I sleep till dusk is dipt in gray: And then I know the mist is drawn       A lucid veil from coast to coast,       And in the dark church like a ghost Thy tablet glimmers to the dawn.
