MELANCHOLOY STAR

Sun ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ melancholy star!
Whose ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ beam glows tremulously far,
That show'st the darkness thou canst not dispel,
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦

So gleams ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ the light of other days,
Which shines, ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
A night-beam Sorrow ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
Distinct but distant ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ oh how cold!

(Blackout of Sun of the Sleepless! by George (Lord) Byron)
