Nor deem these mingling tears our last farewell!”

Is the voice hush’d, whose loved expressive tone

Thrill’d to her heart—and doth she weep alone?

Alone she weeps; that hour of parting o’er,

When shall the pang it leaves be felt no more?

The gale breathes light, and fans her bosom fair,

Showering the dewy rose-leaves o’er her hair;

But ne’er for her shall dwell reviving power

In balmy dew, soft breeze, or fragrant flower,

To wake once more that calm serene delight,
