Lyrics
Sweet chimes! that in the loneliness of night Salute the pa**ing hour, and in the dark And silent chambers of the household mark The movements of the myriad orbs of light Through my close eyelids, by the inner sight I see the constellations in the arc Of their great circles moving on, and hark! I almost hear them singing in their flight Better than sleep it is to lie awake O'ercanopied by the vast starry dome Of the immeasurable sky; To feel The slumbering world sink under us, and make Hardly an eddy,—a mere rush of foam On the great sea beneath a sinking keel
