NIGHT-PIECE

Joseph Campbell

Fill me, O stars, As with an olden tune. Look thro’ your cloudy bars, O summer moon;

Look thro’, and drench in silver light My soul this night. O brief, enchanted dream Of sea and sky,

Of ploughland, meadow, stream, And twilight loth to die, Of fire and dew — My soul is one with you!
