IN TUSCANY: STRAMBOTTI: 3, by                    
First Line: At lucca, in my garden, night comes bringing
Last Line: And dream, awake, of things that never were.


At Lucca, in my garden, night comes bringing
The sweetest nightingales that ever were.
I hear them first so very softly singing
To make among the leaves a little stir;
But later, when the round white moon is flinging
The cool gray shadows on each side of her,
I hear their songs through all the silence ringing,
And dream, awake, of things that never were.
