Evening has Lost Her Throne

 

Lyrics

Evening has lost her throne;
The rosey smile fades from her disenchanted realms;
Now darker shadows lengthen from the file
Of lofty dreaming elms;
The fields lie silent, waiting for the love
Of yonder moon, who lingers pale
Like a young bride behind her scarse-seen veil,
Faint with sweet eagerness, yet shy
To leave the bosom of her mother-grove,
And bare her brightness to the lonely sky.
