Pardon, Goddess of the Night Lyrics by Virgil Thomson

Five Shakespeare Songs

0

Pardon, goddess of the night
Those that slew thy virgin knight;
For the which, with songs of woe
Round about her tomb they go
Midnight, assist our moan;
Help us to sigh and groan
Heavily, heavily:
Graves, yawn, and yield your dead
Till death be uttered
Heavily, heavily
