September Night

September Night

Wewalked in the dew, in the drowsy starlightTo the sleepless, sleepy soundOf insects singing in the low sea-meadowsFor miles and miles around;With a wheel and a whirr the resistless rhythmTrembled incessantly;Antares was red in the sky before us,And behind us, the blackness of the sea.

Wewalked in the dew, in the drowsy starlight

To the sleepless, sleepy sound

Of insects singing in the low sea-meadows

For miles and miles around;

With a wheel and a whirr the resistless rhythm

Trembled incessantly;

Antares was red in the sky before us,

And behind us, the blackness of the sea.
