18The evening darkens over.After a day so brightThe windcapt waves discoverThat wild will be the night.There’s sound of distant thunder.The latest sea-birds hoverAlong the cliff’s sheer height;As in the memory wanderLast flutterings of delight,White wings lost on the white.There’s not a ship in sight;And as the sun goes underThick clouds conspire to coverThe moon that should rise yonder.Thou art alone, fond lover.

The evening darkens over.

After a day so bright

The windcapt waves discover

That wild will be the night.

There’s sound of distant thunder.

The latest sea-birds hoverAlong the cliff’s sheer height;As in the memory wanderLast flutterings of delight,White wings lost on the white.

The latest sea-birds hover

Along the cliff’s sheer height;

As in the memory wander

Last flutterings of delight,

White wings lost on the white.

There’s not a ship in sight;And as the sun goes underThick clouds conspire to coverThe moon that should rise yonder.Thou art alone, fond lover.

There’s not a ship in sight;

And as the sun goes under

Thick clouds conspire to cover

The moon that should rise yonder.

Thou art alone, fond lover.
