O’er my dark spirit cast;

No thought may dream, no words may tell,

What there unseen hath pass’d:

This wither’d cheek, this faded eye,

Are seals of thee—behold! and fly!

Hath not my cup for thee been pour’d

Beneath the palm-tree’s shade?

Hath not soft sleep thy frame restored

Within my dwelling laid?

What though unknown—yet who shall rest
