THE SKAITH OF GUILLARDUN: 92, by                    
First Line: Who, waking as from sleep, bewilder'd gazed
Last Line: O speak! For thy soft eyes compassion waken.'
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Dreams; Love; Memory; Nightmares


Who, waking as from sleep, bewilder'd gazed
About the gloom-lit place in wan dismay;
Then dwelt upon that gentle dame amazed,
And faintly came her voice from far away,
'Some troublous dream hath all my senses dazed:
Methought that in my winding sheet I lay,
And that my love had ever me forsaken—
O speak! for thy soft eyes compassion waken.'
