Under the hawthorn's blossom-bough,

Gone; for Day and Night are married.

All the light of love is fled:—

Alas! that negro breasts should hide

The lips that were so rosy red,

At morning and at even-tide!

Delightful Summer! then adieu

Till thou shalt visit us anew:

But who without regretful sigh

Can say, adieu, and see thee fly?
