Too deeply loved, too late return’d!
—A fever’d blush, a sudden start,
Spoke the last weakness of her heart;
’Twas vanquish’d soon—the hectic red
A moment flush’d her check, and fled.
Once more serene—her steadfast eye
Look’d up as to Eternity;
Then gazed on Ulric with an air,
That said—the home of Love is there!
Yes! there alone it smiled for him,
