Lyrics: William Mason
Sleep and silence reign around;
Not a night breeze wakes to blow.
Circle, sons, this holy ground;
Circle close in triple row.
And, if masked in vapours drear,
Any earth-borne spirit dare
To hover round this sacred space
Haste with light spells the murky foe to chase.
Sleep and silence reign around;
Not a night breeze wakes to blow.
Circle, sons, this holy ground;
Circle close in triple row.
And, if masked in vapours drear,
Any earth-borne spirit dare
To hover round this sacred space
Haste with light spells the murky foe to chase.
