Darkness, black In the eclipse distilled... Leaning to look if foot might pa** Down through that chasm I saw beneath as far As vision could explore Looking as if Just varnished o´er With that dark pitch the seat of d**h Throws out upon its slimy shores A reservoir Of darkness black As moon d** In th´eclipse distilled Feeble creature, suffocating, choking, crying, reeling, dying A cleansing metamorphosis shall sweep away my stupidity Leaning to look If foot might pa** Down through that chasm I saw beneath As far As vision could explore The jetty sides As smooth as gla** Looking as if just varnished o´er With that dark pitch the seat of d**h Throws out upon A reservoir of darkness, black As witches´ cauldrons are, when Filled With moon d** in th´eclipse distilled Leaning to look if foot might pa** Down through that chasm I saw beneath As far As vision Could explore... Slumber, Watcher, till the spheres Six and twenty thousand years Have revolved and I return To the spot where now I burn... Other stars anon shall rise To the axis of the skies The skies Other stars anon shall rise To the axis of the skies The stars that soothe The stars that bless With the sweetest forgetfulness Only When my round is o´er Shall the past Disturb my door A reservoir of darkness black Darkness black as witches cauldrons
