Many a weary night endured  Since the utter charm of joy has pured  My unquiet dreams, my misery  How sweat if I could share with thee  Unable to endure it's smile  Which kindly eased my sombre veil  I frightened turned my burdened head  And hid in slumbers shade instead    But lifted from my mournful rest  Was I by thee nocturnal guest  When though did vow to suffocate  My tranquil dreams in thrones bed  You spoke to me with loathed glow  And thus have though not kept thy vow  For when thy shadow sprang on me  I closed my eyes in ecstasy
