    When the hollow drum has beat to bed
    And the little fifer hangs his head,
    When all is mute the Moorish flute,
    And nodding guards watch wearily,
    On, then let me,
    From prison free,
    March out by moonlight cheerily.

The sun had sunk and the summer skies
Were dotted with specks of light
That melted soon in the deep moon-rise
That flowed over Groton Height.

Mother of light! how fairly dost thou go
Over those hoary crests, divinely led!
Art thou that huntress of the silver bow
Fabled of old? Or rather dost thou tread
Those cloudy summits thence to gaze below,
Like the wild chamois from her Alpine snow,
Where hunters never climbed--secure from dread?

Floods the calm fields with light.
The airs that hover in the summer sky
Are all asleep to-night.

From the slow opening curtains of the clouds
Walking in beauty to her midnight throne!
