I'm thinking about adding more, but for now this is what I have

I play forthe night

Upon the walls of weeping,
Where I traveled in disdain,
I heard a violins sound seeping,
Through the dreary wet rain,

There I did travel so contrite,
To hear this sound of angelic gracile,
But who was I, what was it my right?
To walk this place so versatile?

On walking more I did find,
A maiden in a phase of waxing,
Sitting in an open tent confined,
Playing Paganini while relaxing,

"For whom do you play my pretty miss?"
Asked I in utter queerness,
By one who would play in this abyss,
Though I myself of it was fearless,

With honeycombed wet hair,
Diid her head turn to me,
And dark eyes with blare,
She thus addressed me,

"Why my good sir I play for the night,
Weather the season be fall or spring,
I play for its lovely sight,
And the moon seems taken by my playing,"
