            <text>Il est minuit, tout m'abandonne,&#13;
Je n'ai d'ami que ma douleur;&#13;
Et dans l'effroi qui m'environne,&#13;
Je suis seul avec mon malheur.&#13;
Chaque instant, l'oreille attentive,&#13;
Je crois, de mon épouse plaintive,&#13;
Entendre les tristes accens,&#13;
Illusion trompeuse et vaine!...&#13;
Je n'entends que gémir ma chaîne,&#13;
Et j'appelle en vain mes enfans.&#13;
&#13;
O! que la nuit dans sa carrire&#13;
Est lente à ramener le jour! &#13;
Eh! que m'importe la lumire?&#13;
Je vais la perdre sans retour.&#13;
Hélas! abreuvé de tristesse,&#13;
Nuit, je te demande sans cesse,&#13;
Verrai-je le jour qui te suit?&#13;
Et quand le jour vient à paroître,&#13;
Je dis: ô jour, fais-moi connoître&#13;
Si je dois voir encor la nuit?&#13;
