Chapter V Lyrics

Chapter V lyrics

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
