<poem>While night bejewelled her fine cloak with stars
a shepherd, shedding floods of tears, thus spoke:
"Holy lights of the heavens, bright flames,
you are less lovely by far than the eyes of the girl
who to my eyes is the only beauty there is."

While night bejewelled her fine cloak with stars
a shepherd, shedding floods of tears, thus spoke:
"Holy lights of the heavens, bright flames,
you are less lovely by far than the eyes of the girl
who to my eyes is the only beauty there is."
