All was silent, all was still; And the man of many pleasures felt upon him steal a mood That was stronger than his will. In the sky each glowing star assumed a different coloured flame, But the flames they gave no light. He was cold at heart and wearyand a numbing sense of shame Made him fearful of the night. Though alone, he felt that hidden in the bushes and the trees Many eyes were watching him. When he tried to move he wavered, and he fell upon his knees, And his sight with tears was dim. While he knelt, he knew not how long, in the grass a blue-bell glowed, Glowed with light amid the dew.
