\n

When the unquiet hours depart
\nAnd far away their tumults cease,
\nWithin the twilight of the heart
\nWe bathe in peace, are stilled with peace.<\/p>\n

The fire that slew us through the day
\nFor angry deed or sin of sense
\nNow is the star and homeward ray
\nTo us who bow in penitence.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Above there is the sound recording and the text of the first two stanzas of The Hour of Twilight<\/em> by A.E. Try to make a phonetic transcription of the passage as pronounced by the speaker, James Gladwin. Then you can compare your version with mine by clicking on the show<\/span> link below. My version has stress markings.<\/p>\n

With thanks to James Gladwin and Librivox<\/a>.<\/p>\n
