MY DELIGHT by GAMALIEL BRADFORD

First Line: THICK AND STORMY WAS THE NIGHT
Last Line: NIGHT AND WIND AND STORM.
Subject(s): HAPPINESS; JOY; DELIGHT;

Thick and stormy was the night,
Not a single star,
When I climbed to my delight,
Where the roses are;

Where the roses are and love,
In a bower warm,
Climbing up to heaven above
Night and wind and storm.
