ABASHED by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THE COCK CROWS; AND BEHOLD THE HIDDEN DAY
Last Line: HIS FACE BEDEWED WITH TEARS.
Subject(s): MORNING; NIGHT; BEDTIME;
The cock crows; and behold the hidden Day,
The thrice-denied, appears;
And Darkness, conscience-stricken, steals away,
His face bedewed with tears.
