Whereon to heap sweet tokens of my love.

And all that loom’d around seem’d holier now,

Illumed by holy lights of memory.

Nor long was it ere I had grown to share

In all the love of all with whom I met;

And oft, too, thus invoking sympathy,

My wishes wrought like witches, and conjured

The thing they wish’d for: sympathy would come.
