Donna Clara<br />

In the evening through her garden<br />

Wanders the Alcalde's daughter;<br />

Festal sounds of drum and trumpet<br />

Ring out hither from the castle.<br />

"I am weary of the dances.<br />

Honeyed words of adulation<br />

From the knights who still compare mc<br />

To the sun,—with dainty phrases.<br />

"Yes, of all things I am weary,<br />

Since I first beheld by moonlight.<br />

Him my cavalier, whose zither<br />

Nightly draws me to my casement.<br />

As he stands, so slim and daring.<br />

With his flaming eyes that sparkle<br />

From his nobly-pallid features.<br />

Truly he St. George resembles."<br />
