A Charm lyrics
Quiet!
Sleep! or I will make
Erinnys whip thee with a snake,
And cruel Rhadamanthus take
Thy body to the boiling lake,
Where fire and brimstones never slake;
Thy heart shall burn, thy head
shall ache,
And ev'ry joint about thee quake;
And therefor dare
not yet to wake!
Quiet, sleep!
Quiet, sleep!
Quiet!
Quiet!
Sleep! or thou shalt see
The horrid hags of
Tartary,
Whose tresses ugly serpants be,
And Cerberus shall bark
at thee,
And all the Furies that are three
The worst is called
Tisiphone,
Shall lash thee to eternity;
And therefor sleep thou
peacefully
Quiet, sleep!
Quiet, sleep!
Quiet!
