Wherein I pour the fervent thoughts, th’ untold,

The self-consuming! Speak to him of me,

Thou, the deserted by the lonely sea,

With the soft sadness of thine earnest eye—

Speak to him, lorn one! deeply, mournfully,

Of all my love and grief! Oh! could I throw

Into thy frame a voice—a sweet, and low,

And thrilling voice of song! when he came nigh,

To send the passion of its melody

Through his pierced bosom—on its tones to bear
