The Grey Dawn
WHAT cries the grey dawn to my sudden waking, What cries the grey dawn to my heart close-lying, Here in this room by years of loving hallowed, Here with my lover old, and tried and faithful? HAT cries the grey dawn? Ah, my heart affrighted In your estranging sleeps sees that to be, When you, or I, shall wake alone and weeping, And I, or you, sleep on, to wake
no more.
