Till the sun grows cold. And the stars are old. And the leaves of the Judgment Book unfold! lx>ok from thy window and see My passion and my pain; 1 lie on the sands below, And I faint in thy disdain. I,et the night winds touch thy brow With the heat of my burning sigh, And melt thee to hear the vow Of a love that shall not die. Till the sun grows cold, And the stars are old, .\nd the leaves of the Judgment Book- unfold! My steps are nightly driven, By the (ever in my breast, Tp hear from thy .lattice breathed The words that shall give me rest. ^^Qpen-the^door.iof. thy K>art, . • .And ol)en thy chamber door, ” . ,r-'- And my kisses shall teach thy lips The love that shall fade no more. _ Till the sun grows cold, And the stars are old, , -And the leaves of the judgment Book urffbld!
