I had no Cause to be awake—
My Best—was gone to sleep—
And Morn a new politeness took—
And failed to wake them up—

But called the others—clear—
And passed their Curtains by—

And then I looked at Them—
And wishfulness in me arose—
For Circumstance the same—

'Twas Sabbath—with the Bells divorced—

So choosing but a Gown—
And taking but a Prayer—
The only Raiment I should need—
I struggled—and was There—
