Little Morning Star

 

Little houri! When I saw

Thou for the first,—

Morning star in the horizon east,

Fought which night's awe,

To change my morning's law.

And there I was standing wonderstruck,

Pondering, now when sky has been recast,

Dost this new star takes row

To shine for me during the day?

Sun's light I have'd enough,

What dost this new celestial angel creates?

There I was cajoling my new ray,

The lips parted for a laugh;

O my ears, what heaven narrates?
