See still the little painted bark,

In which I row'd you o'er the lake;

See there, high waving o'er the park,

The elm, I clamber'd for your sake.

These times are past, our joys are gone,

You leave me, leave this happy vale;

These scenes, I must retrace alone,

Without thee, what will they avail.

Who can conceive, who has not prov'd,

The anguish of a last embrace?
