night visitor And I asleep,saw my love standing near, Pale she was,ghost like in the moon light clear. To my bed she came,and brushed my lips with hers, To ease my sorrows and steal away my cares. White was her throat ,so white ,so cold ,so near, Yet no pulse of her warm hot blood was there. Her slender fingers to my grieving head she laid, Cold her fingers,colder than her new dug grave. Softly she spoke,whispering in my ear, Soft her voice,softer still her falling tear. How my poor heart surged with joy;not fright, My only thought ,my dream,my word-Delight! arthur |

"Softly she spoke,whispering in my ear, Soft her voice,softer still her falling tear. How my poor heart surged with joy;not fright, My only thought ,my dream,my word-Delight!" Well done Michael.. Well done indeed. In the midst of winter, |
