Oldfield Mike - Incantations lyrics
This is the song from part 4 of "Incantations". I read it some
years ago in an Oldfield songbook and kept in mind.
No idea who wrote it or if it has a name. Sorry, I don't even
know the name of the book I read it in.
Wolfram Roesler
INCANTATIONS PART 4
Queen and huntress chaste and fair
Now the sun is laid to sleep
Seated in a silver chair
State in wanted manner keep
Earth let not an envious shade
Oldfield Mike - Incantations - http://motolyrics.com/oldfield-mike/incantations-lyrics.html
Dare itself to interpose
Cynthia's shining orb was made
Heaven to cheer when day did close
Lay the bow of pearl apart
And the crystal-shining quiver
Give unto the flying heart
Space to breath how short so ever
Hesperus entreaty thy light
Goddess excellently bright
Bless us then with wished sight
Thou who makes a day of night
