- Now it was beside my bed.
- Undersheet I kept my head,
- Entire body filled with dread.
- Soon I feared I would be dead.
- Its lips touched my cheek,
- Under sheet I kept my head.
- "Ghoul or ghost,
- Whichever are ye,"
- Screamed I to it to spare me.
- Answering not my frantic plea,
- It stood its place silently.
- Now I flung aside the sheet,
- And letting out
- A piercing shreak:
- Withholding fear
- With all my might,
- Stumbling forward,
- Madly fumbling,
- I found the switch,
- Turned on the light.
- Looking there
- Where monster stood,
- Mother's face came into sight.
