Follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow,  
Follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow,
  &nbsp; Though thou be black as night,  
  &nbsp; Though thou be black as night,
  &nbsp; And she made all of light;  
  &nbsp; And she made all of light;
Yet follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow!
Yet follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow!


Follow her, whose light thy light depriveth!  
Follow her, whose light thy light depriveth!
  &nbsp; Though here thou livest disgraced,  
  &nbsp; Though here thou livest disgraced,
  &nbsp; And she in heaven is placed;  
  &nbsp; And she in heaven is placed;
Yet follow her whose light the world reviveth!
Yet follow her whose light the world reviveth!


Follow those pure beams, whose beauty burneth!  
Follow those pure beams, whose beauty burneth!
  &nbsp; That so have scorchèd thee;  
  &nbsp; That so have scorchèd thee;
  &nbsp; As thou still black must be,  
  &nbsp; As thou still black must be,
Till her kind beams thy black to brightness turneth!
Till her kind beams thy black to brightness turneth!


Follow her, while yet her glory shineth!  
Follow her, while yet her glory shineth!
  &nbsp; There comes a luckless night  
  &nbsp; There comes a luckless night
  &nbsp; That will dim all her light;  
  &nbsp; That will dim all her light;
And this the black unhappy shade divineth.
And this the black unhappy shade divineth.


Follow still, since so thy Fates ordained!  
Follow still, since so thy Fates ordained!
  &nbsp; The sun must have his shade,  
  &nbsp; The sun must have his shade,
  &nbsp; Till both at once do fade;  
  &nbsp; Till both at once do fade;
The sun still proved, the shadow still disdained!}}
The sun still proved, the shadow still disdained!}}

Follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow,
   Though thou be black as night,
   And she made all of light;
Yet follow thy fair sun, unhappy shadow!

Follow her, whose light thy light depriveth!
   Though here thou livest disgraced,
   And she in heaven is placed;
Yet follow her whose light the world reviveth!

Follow those pure beams, whose beauty burneth!
   That so have scorchèd thee;
   As thou still black must be,
Till her kind beams thy black to brightness turneth!

Follow her, while yet her glory shineth!
   There comes a luckless night
   That will dim all her light;
And this the black unhappy shade divineth.

Follow still, since so thy Fates ordained!
   The sun must have his shade,
   Till both at once do fade;
The sun still proved, the shadow still disdained!
