With loose, falling hair,
With garlaud and gem
Flung aside anywhere,
She weeps Der lock
From false lovers head,
Through tears scans face
That to her must be dead.

Shevows yet again,
To hmg right and left
Poisoned arrows Of pain
And so, all defiant,
You meet her the morrow,
Gay Lily, bright Lily,
Nor guess at her sorrow.
