USHER
("The Sleeper") The lady sleeps. oh, may her
is enduring so be deep!
Heaven hold her in its keep!
This chamber changed for one holy,
bed for one of melancholy.
I to God that she may lie
with unopened eye
while the dim, sheeted go by.
My love, she sleeps. Oh, may her
as it is so be deep!
may the worms around her creep!
Far in the forest, dim and old,
now may some vault enfold her;
vault that oft hath flung its black
and winged fluttering back
triumphant the crested palls
of her family funerals....
