JULY 14, AT NIGHT, by FEODOR (FYODOR) IVANOVICH TYUTCHEV Poem Explanation Poet's Biography
First Line: Not yet cooled, the windless night
Last Line: Mute as lightning, swift and stern.
First Line: Not yet cooled, the windless night
Last Line: Mute as lightning, swift and stern.
Not yet cooled, the windless night
Of July shone strangely still.
Earth lay dim, and fitful light
In the skyey, storm-filled height
Trembled over field and hill.
So might lidded eyes unclose,
And between vast lashes burn
Glances flaming and morose,
Over earth's remote repose,
Mute as lightning, swift and stern.
