Song<br />

Night lay upon my eyelids,<br />

About my lips earth clave;<br />

With stony heart and forehead<br />

1 lay within my grave.<br />

How long I cannot reckon,<br />

I slept in that strait bed;<br />

I woke and heard distinctly<br />

A knocking overhead.<br />

"Wilt thou not rise, my Henry?<br />

The eternal dawn is here;<br />

The dead have re-arisen,<br />

Immortal bliss is near."<br />

"I cannot rise, my darling,<br />

I am blinded to the day.<br />

Mine eyes with tears, thou knowest.<br />

Have wept themselves away."<br />
