Night, in a crown and deep blue gown, is followed by a train of baby stars, larks, and poppies. She carries one sleeping star, and presses her finger to her lips to warn the others not to awaken it.
Shadows rise. The lark sings on. The sun,
Closing his benediction,
Sinks, and the darkening air
Thrills with a sense of the triumphing night
Night with her train of stars
And her great gift of sleep. -- "Margaritae Sorori" by W. E Henley (Pre-Raphaelite, 1912)
