Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal Lyrics

Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white;
Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk;
Nor winks the gold fin in the porphyry font:
The fire-fly wakens: waken thou with me.Now droops the milkwhite peacock like a ghost,
And like a ghost she glimmers on to me.Now lies the Earth all Dana to the stars,
And all thy heart lies open unto me.Now slides the silent meteor on, and leaves
A shining furrow, as thy thoughts in me.
