The Lament.
Swiftar far than summers flight,
swifter far than youths delight,
swiftcr far than happy night,
Art thou come and gone:
AS the earth when leaves arc dead,
As the night when sleep is sped.
AS the heart when JOY is fled.

The owlat, Night, resumes her reign;
But the Wild swan, Youth, Is fain Y
TO fly with thee, false as thou.
My heart each day desires tho morrow;
steep itself is turned to sorrow;
yaInly would my Winter borrow
Sunny leaves from any l,ough.
Lilies for bridal bed,
Roses for matron's head,
violets for maiden dead
Panses let my flowers be:
On the living grave bear.
Scatter them without n tear,
LET no friend, however, dear,
Waste one hope, one fear for me.
