Like a fragment fall'n from yonder bow,

Which hangeth like Hope in the heaven.

And gayly on a golden wing,

At the sweet evening hour,

The humming-bird comes like a fairy thing

To flit round the beautiful flower.

Oh, be not like that humming-bird

Around the sweet rose roving,

That is ling'ring there, while e'er is heard

The breezes of summer moving,
