| Close all windows, Close all doors, Utter not A word aloud; Cast the shadow By a single Candle, tall And black as shade; When the clock Is striking twelve, Take two lacquers, Gold and silver; Where your shape Stands on the wall, Paint with one And then the another; Trace the edges With your finger, Quickly blow The candle out-- Then through darkness Fly from day The midnight image Has been caught. |
