LADY before the SEALS PLACID
ON thstwhich fain its tale would tell
That little all which love embraced,
OH let me sigh, and say, farewell
Farewell I wo,ld that word were all
Which mind can think and tongue can say,
For much ofjoy this word can pail,
Or qucnch the tear that bids it stay.
Long have known--And known in vain
The proof--this burning bosom's swell |!
And yet my heart can feel the pain
Which fingers on the word-farewell.
Therewas time-it now is gone
When could gaze, and meet return
But now this heart is chill and lone
Too young to teach-too old to learn.
Lady could not bear that look
Which seem'd my all of hope to quell;
Icould not mark that frown-and brock
The smile which loudly said-farewell
Others may say, they love thee more
Than have thought, or could have done
And this believe-but not before
This heart is cold--and life is gone.
All man can lose, is lost to me -
But what this is, it may be well
That thou should'st know--t,at tits for thee
I've wept aud s gh'd-f farewell farewell!
Lady! this heart will be at rest
When thine shall beat as firm s-,d high,
As once though fcltit warmly prest 81
'Gainst mine-in nameless exstacy
Lady thine eye will shine as bright,
When mine shall fade in wakeless sleep;
Its tears will fall to gain delight
> When mine has long forgot to weep.
And be il so yet sometimes think
OF him who lovsd and lov'd too well
and never from those feelings shrink
Which babe thee ACKNOWLEDGMENT!
