    The sunbeams dropped
    Their gold, and, passing in porch and niche,
    Softened to shadows, silvery, pale, and dim,
    As if the very Day paused and grew Eve.

Are lighter than blown thistledown;
She bears the glamour of one star
Upon her violet crown.

Well they have done their office, those bright hours,
The latest of whose train goes softly out
In the red west.

She bids you on the wanton rushes lay you down
And rest your gentle head upon her lap,
And she will sing the song that pleaseth you
And on your eyelids crown the god of sleep,
Charming your brood with pleasing heaviness,
Making such difference 'twixt wake and sleep
As is the difference betwixt day and night
The hour before the heavenly-harnessed team
Begins his golden progress in the east.

Parting day
Dies like the dolphin, whom each pang imbues
With a new colour as it gasps away,
The last still loveliest, till--'tis gone--and all is gray.

Twilight's soft dews steal o'er the village-green,
With magic tints to harmonize the scene.
Stilled is the hum that through the hamlet broke
When round the ruins of their ancient oak
The peasants flocked to hear the minstrel play,
And games and carols closed the busy day.
