    The moon, the moon, so silver and cold,
    Her fickle temper has oft been told,
    Now shade--now bright and sunny--
    But of all the lunar things that change,
    The one that shows most fickle and strange,
    And takes the most eccentric range,
    Is the moon--so called--of honey!

The moving moon went up to the sky,
And nowhere did abide;
