Where is the sunshine gone? Where is the gold?

It was a lovely day! ‘Tis cold and dead;

No light, no warmth, no cheer!—Oh, presently

Those two will take the summer road to Vannes!

Ha! does he think that I will meekly stay

Within this convent close, will kneel and pray,

Day in, day out, for all true lovers’ weal?

What is there now to do?—O Jealousy!

I dream of Paimpont Wood in June! I’ll dream

Of sunlit peaks, of roses named Clarice;
