Glories untasted I survey— 90

My heart is sick, my bosom cold,

Friends! neighbours! kindred! where are they,

In the sad, last, long, endless day:

When I can neither pray nor weep,

Doom’d o’er the sleeping world to stray,

And not to die, and not to sleep?

XIII.

Beside the summer sea I stand,

Where the slow billows swelling shine.
