“My heart is sad for thee, love,

For lone thy way will be;

And oft thy tears will fall, love,

For thy children and for me.

“The music of thy daughter’s voice

Thou’lt miss for many a year;

And the merry shout of thine elder boys

Thou’lt list in vain to hear.

“When we knelt to see our Henry die,

And heard his last, faint moan,
