You’ll weep to hear her story,

For he ne’er guess’d her heart’s sad plight,

Nor cared for aught but glory.

Lured by its bright and dazzling gleam,

He left the woe-worn maiden,

Nor in her eyes beheld the beam

Of love, from heart o’erladen.

She sigh’d; her sighs ne’er touch’d his ear,

For still his heart was bounding
