Blessed moon Noon of night that through the dark bids Love stay— curious shapes awake to plague me Is day near Shining girl? Yes, day! the warm the radiant all fulfilling day.

Language: English
Light hearted William twirled his November moustaches and, half dressed, looked from the bedroom window upon the spring weather. Heigh-ya! sighed he gaily leaning out to see up and down the street where a heavy sunlight lay beyond some blue shadows. Into the room he drew his head again and laughed to himself quietly twirling his green moustaches.
