| The shimmer of pearl belongs of right to her whose soul reflects the colour and quiet radiance of a thousand dreams. The moon was coming up, and its mystic shimmer was casting a million lights across the distant, restless water. There is no night-time in the northern summer, But golden shimmer fills the hours of sleep, And sunset fades not, till the bright new-comer, Red sunrise, smites the deep. |
