on whom the moon doth shine - theatre of tragedy lyrics

“o soft embalmer of ye still midnight,
allow me thee to adown
of an sort thou fancieth;
each holdeth it’s own fancy, i say –
yet the pleasure we partake in
was caus’d by the fang’d grin,
save!, do i for him anger hold?:
nay – i knew i was fey!”
“had i what it taketh, i would do;
i sense – i cannot sense,
i am – yet! i am not –
once i kiss’d the image
of the seven angels of death.”
“yet as thou so didst,
on my lips a kiss landed,
and with the shadow blended
the tendermost silken mourn;
in whic
h the light hidden is –
yon h-ll’s brazen doors
wrathfully it trieth to push.”
“then, lo! the bleak death,
serpent-like ‘twixt the br–sts crept:
hush’d with a gasp of life’s breath,
together red tears they wept,
and p-ss’d the procession of dancers dead –
as in darkness were we lock’d in wed.”
“hush’d with a gasp of life’s breath,
together red tears we wept – in vain,
and p-ss’d the procession of dancers dead –
as in darkness were we lock’d in wed:
i kiss’d the seven angels of death.”
“and h-ll open’d it’s doors,
yet what was ‘fore my eyes
but if not the brightest light.”
“yet what was ‘fore my eyes
but if not the brightest light.”
