A NIGHT IN JUNE, by VICTOR MARIE HUGO Poet's Biography
First Line: In summer - daylight fled - where flowers abound
Last Line: Seems all night long on heaven's low ridge to halt.
First Line: In summer - daylight fled - where flowers abound
Last Line: Seems all night long on heaven's low ridge to halt.
IN summer--daylight fled--where flowers abound,
The fields their luscious fragrance pour afar;
With half-closed eyes, ears scarce awake to sound,
Slumbering, our minds not all unconscious are.
The stars, more pure, shine through the shadowy skies;
Uncertain twilight tints th' eternal vault;
Dawn, soft and pale, waiting its hour to rise,
Seems all night long on heaven's low ridge to halt.
