By the morning
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​therein Lord’s Courtyard
the alarm of birds are heard thereabout.

Mockers arise before the dawn
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​thereof.

Thy philosophy, an observation
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​set forth at will.

Nature and Nature’s works
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​vehemently lay hid therein.

Wherefore at night
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​therein Lord’s court,
shall it not be from East,
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​to what degree orange lightning
hast been shown forth without thunder.

And the clouds evade
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​bright at dawn,
O god could it be Venus?
​ ​ ​​​ ​​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​ ​​ ​ ​​​ ​The morning star:
Roman goddess of love, orange therein Earth’s sky.
