I have fled from all, and none can now br br My way, my wanderings see; br br The waters widely round me flow— br br I feel that I am free! br br br Oh! who can wish for sunny day, br When they may look on that lovely ray— br On the moon so pure, so clear, and fair, br When no human form is nigh, br When no human voice can startle the air? br All is silence and secrecy. br br No sound but the waters, that, murmuring, move— br No light but the shadowless orb above.
