NUMBER:6169
AUTHOR:J. Augustus Wade (1800–1875)
QUOTATION:Meet me by moonlight alone,
  And then I will tell you a tale
Must be told by the moonlight alone,
  In the grove at the end of the vale!
You must promise to come, for I said
  I would show the night-flowers their queen.
Nay, turn not away that sweet head,
  ’T is the loveliest ever was seen.
ATTRIBUTION:Meet me by Moonlight.
