She will not hear you her turrets , nnrslng sr.
High thoughts, too high TO mae min , hg
In twilight caves and secret loneliness
She shades the bloom Of her unearthly days;
Tbe forest winds alone approach to woo her;
Far off we catch the dark bloom of her tresses
And Wild birds haunt the wood walks where she
strays,
Ineligible music warblipg to her.
The Spirit.charged to follow and defend her,
He also doubtless suffers this love-pain.
And she, perhaps is sad, hearing his sighing
And yet that face is not 80 sad as tender;
Like some sweet singers, when her sweetest strain
From the heaved heart is gradually dying.
