VESTAL STAR

VESTAL STAR

The long, long march is o’er, the weary roaming;We bivouac, yearning for a peaceful night;I lie and dream amid the purple gloaming,And scan the heavens for a beacon light.As graying shadows lengthen o’er the landscape,And gentle zephyrs lightly stir the air,In yon first twinkling star I gleam a visionOf little sister offering up a prayer.Fra Guido, F.A.

The long, long march is o’er, the weary roaming;

We bivouac, yearning for a peaceful night;

I lie and dream amid the purple gloaming,

And scan the heavens for a beacon light.

As graying shadows lengthen o’er the landscape,And gentle zephyrs lightly stir the air,In yon first twinkling star I gleam a visionOf little sister offering up a prayer.Fra Guido, F.A.

As graying shadows lengthen o’er the landscape,

And gentle zephyrs lightly stir the air,

In yon first twinkling star I gleam a vision

Of little sister offering up a prayer.

Fra Guido, F.A.
