Am I remember’d in my home?

When those I love for joy are met,

Does some one wish that I would come?

Thou dost—I am beloved of these!

But, as the schoolboy numbers o’er

Night after night the Pleiades,

And finds the stars he found before;

As turns the maiden oft her token;

As counts the miser aye his gold;

So, till life’s silver cord is broken,
