Pagina 120 - And the glow-worm came, With its silvery flame, And sparkled and shone Through the night of St John ; And soon has the young maid her love-knot tied. With noiseless tread, To her chamber she sped, Where the spectral moon her white beams shed : — "Bloom here, bloom here, thou plant of power, To deck the young bride in her bridal hour...
