MusPuppis Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Dance, O' Dance! O gala night! O dance divine encirc'd within thy curtained shrine, lamps strung low, of feeble glare cast they light, in movements fair! how they revel! tumble strange, limbs a-kimbo, faces strained, -as phantom music plays and plays Corpses turn a simple step, with night to hide their halted breath hearts stopped well and figures cold costumes dawned, from days of old. Still they swing, both gay and strange as night pervaids and horror reigns -as phantom music plays and plays A lusty waltz! with fasioned air the revel'rs turn and chance a stare as figures new and thus arrived, appear bewildered; in confusion strive to find in darkness, fettered way, so sing'ly search the failing day -as phantom music plays and plays.
