Since all might share their lay;
And for thy loves fictitious pain
(Apt fancy's hollow play

But lightly held what lightly came.

Though queenly- and grand.
With all thy song flowers brow-besprent,
And radiant from thy hand;
Since others shared. and many won
Like guerdon from thy glorious sun

To loves voluptuous laws,
And mar my life's unbroken psalm
For this too shallow cause;
To live thine ideal theme of praise
The regal star of poets lays.
Yet. minstrel. deem not mine the heart
Bright genius could not thrill
Thy songs have bid my tears to start.
And memory loves them still.
