Seëst thou thy lover lowly laid?

Hear’st thou the groans that rend his breast?

*****

Still o’er these scenes my mem’ry wakes,

And fondly broods with miser care!

Time but th’ impression stronger makes,

As streams their channels deeper wear.

My Mary, dear departed shade!

Where is thy place of blissful rest?

Seëst thou thy lover lowly laid?
