Gone to Como, they said; and I have posted to Como.

There was a letter left; but the cameriere had lost it.

Could it have been for me? They came, however, to Como,

And from Como went by the boat,—perhaps to the Splügen,—

Or to the Stelvio, say, and the Tyrol; also it might be

By Porlezza across to Lugano, and so to the Simplon

Possibly, or the St. Gothard,—or possibly, too, to Baveno,

Orta, Turin, and elsewhere. Indeed, I am greatly bewildered.
