Riddle of What and Where

What calls for bells to peal
Stern trumpets sound
Loud drums to beat with zeal
Resounding pound?
What doth the night's lamp steal?
O howl, red-eared hound!
What maw doth make this meal
With Fenris bound?
Hides silver in a creel
Of shadow wound?
Where doth the foe conceal
That light, what mound
Hold fast his beams and seal
Them 'neath the ground?
Sure sign of woe, not weal,
The bloody round

Beg time the wound to heal
That light redound
Demand the sky reveal
reflection found

What am I?
.

The Moon Eclipsed
