Hears Druid’s groan and Dryad’s shriek

Oft through the moonlight stillness break,

Yon prison’d cliffs[[92]] their griefs repeat,

Dove howling hoarsely at their feet?

Region!—I lov’d thee at my heart—

Farewell!—for ever now we part.

Forest farewell!—delighted Time

Thee would have spar’d in endless prime;

Me, as he shakes my ebbing sands,

While MORTAL LIFE her roll expands,
