Alone and palely loitering;

The sedge has withered from the lake,

And no birds sing.

O, what can ail thee, knight at arms,

So haggard and so woe-begone?

The squirrel's granary is full,

And the harvest's done.

I see a lilly on thy brow

With anguish moist and fever-dew,

And on thy cheeks a fading rose
