Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal, Op. 3, No. 2 Lyrics

Now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white;
Nor waves the cypress in the palace walk;
Nor winks the gold fin in the porph'ry font.
The firefly wakens; waken thou with me.
Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
And slips into the bosom of the lake.
So fold thyself, me dearest, thou, and slip
Into my bosom and be lost in me.
-Alfred, Lord Tennyson
