O that Voice, so like my own

Calling through the gloom for thee!—

For the love that life has known,

For the parting yet to be!

Sappho

Now I shall go

Quite gladly, with this more than anguish at

My over-aching heart, that cries for rest:

Yes, shade-like even now I seem,—this face

Sea-worn as Leucothea’s lonely face,
