To wait an Hour - is long -
If Love be just beyond
If Love be just beyond

To wait Eternity - is short -
If Love reward the end -
If Love reward the end -
It seems as though the Time -
Indignant - that the Joy was come -
Did block the Gilded Hands -
Did block the Gilded Hands -

And would not let the Seconds by -
But slowest instant - ends -
But slowest instant - ends -
The Pendulum begins to count -
Like little Scholars - loud -
The steps grow thicker - in the Hall -
The Heart begins to crowd -
Like little Scholars - loud -
The steps grow thicker - in the Hall -
The Heart begins to crowd -
