The New Day. Part 4. 1. InterludeSong (Love, Love, my love)

Love, Love, my love,
⁠     The best things are the truest!
When the earth lies shadowy dark below,
⁠     O then the heavens are bluest!
Deep the blue of the sky,
⁠     And sharp the gleam of the stars,
And O, more bright against the night
⁠     The Aurora's crimson bars!
