On An Eclipse Of The Moon Poem by Walter Savage Landor

On An Eclipse Of The Moon

Rating: 3.0


Struggling, and faint, and fainter didst thou wane,
O Moon! and round thee all thy starry train
Came forth to help thee, with half-open eyes,
And trembled every one with still surprise,
That the black Spectre should have dared assail
Their beauteous queen and seize her sacred veil.
