INTERLUDE: And There Was a Great Calm

from Memoria by Scott Howard Eggert

lyrics

From, And There Was a Great Calm – Thomas Hardy

There had been years of Passion – scorching, cold,
And much despair, and Anger heaving high,
Care whitely watching, Sorrows manifold,
Among the young, among the weak and old,
And the pensive Spirit of Pity whispered, “Why?”

Calm fell. From heaven distilled a clemency;
There was peace on earth, and silence in the sky;
Some could, some could not, shake off misery:
The Sinister Spirit sneered: “It had to be!”
And again the Spirit of Pity whispered, “Why?”
