For me, and for him I had no gold.

Because if I did not remember him,

My little child—Ah! What should we have,

He and I? Not even a grave

With a name of his own by the river's brim.

Because if among the poppies gay,

On the hill-side, now my eyes are dim,

I could not fancy a child at play,

And if I should pass by the pool in the quarry

And never see him, a darling ghost,
