First Line: The moon puts on her silver veil
Last Line: The eery laughter of the leaves.
Subject(s): Moon
The Moon puts on her silver veil
And shawl of lace: and with far lutes
And violins in many a dale
The thrushes blow their woodland flutes.
Oh, and with many a ghostly cheer,
Under the moon the forest heaves
And sways with ecstasy to hear
The eery laughter of the leaves.
