Turning lyrics

[Quatrain 1]
Deep dark'ning night, I stood outside
Soul's sepulchre of strangled cares
Lost love and dead desire, and cried
For all light lost and wasted years

[Quatrain 2]
And for a heart of stone so strong
Soul's sorrow wouldn't will to try
To turn it, but dropped down along
The empty bench and closed dim eye

[Quatrain 3]
And I, without, withdrew a step
And waited, mourning, for the morn'
To break, and break my heart, and death
To enter in and steal soul home

[Couplet]
Yet as I waited, wept and yearned
"Why weepest thou?" I heard, and turned
