\u201cBusy old fool, unruly sun,
\nWhy dost thou thus,
\nThrough windows and through curtains,
\nCall on us?\u201d\u201cThy beams, so reverend, and strong\u201d\u201cI could eclipse and cloud them with a wink,
\nBut that I would lose her sight so long\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cTo warm the world,
\nThat\u2019s done in warming us\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShine here to us,
\nAnd thou art everywhere\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThis bed thy center is,
\nThere walls,
\nThy sphere\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThe day is once again anew,
\nRise up as I have and see it through\u201d\u201cAll for you to see the world where
\nYou belong\u201d\u201cEclipse me with your sight,
\nBut do not eclipse me from your life.
\nMy love for you is nothing more
\nThan to nourish you\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI warm the world is I must\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOf course my love,
\nYou are not one to live in moonlight,
\nOnly in the twinkling night\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI see my love is not clear.
\nAs the universe revolves around me,
\nHer world revolves around you\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
