      "The sun descending in the west,",

      "And I must seek for mine.",
      "  The moon, like a flower",
      "  In heaven's high bower,",
      "  With silent delight,",
      "  Sits and smiles on the night.",
      "",
      "Farewell, green fields and happy grove,",
      "Where flocks have ta'en delight.",
      "Where lambs have nibbled, silent move",
      "The feet of angels bright;",
      "  Unseen they pour blessing,",
      "  And joy without ceasing,",
      "  On each bud and blossom,",
      "  And each sleeping bosom.",
      "",
      "They look in every thoughtless nest",
      "Where birds are covered warm;",
      "They visit caves of every beast,",
      "To keep them all from harm:",
      "  If they see any weeping",
      "  That should have been sleeping,",
      "  They pour sleep on their head,",
      "  And sit down by their bed.",

      "When wolves and tigers howl for prey,",
      "They pitying stand and weep;",
      "Seeking to drive their thirst away,",
      "And keep them from the sheep.",
      "  But, if they rush dreadful,",
      "  The angels, most heedful,",
      "  Receive each mild spirit,",
      "  New worlds to inherit.",
      "",
      "And there the lion's ruddy eyes",
      "Shall flow with tears of gold:",
      "And pitying the tender cries,",
      "And walking round the fold:",
      "  Saying: \"Wrath by His meekness,",
      "  And, by His health, sickness,",
      "  Are driven away",
      "  From our immortal day.",

      "I can lie down and sleep,",
      "Or think on Him who bore thy name,",
      "Graze after thee, and weep.",
      "  For, washed in life's river,",
      "  My bright mane for ever",
      "  Shall shine like the gold,",
      "  As I guard o'er the fold.\""
