Can they, who held him dear,
Forget his errors past,
And on his penitential tear
Affection's glances cast?
VI.
Oh! yes! all this may be—
But never, never more,
Will he feel the sweet and childlike glee

VII.
His eye can never more resume
Its calm and fearless gaze;
For the pureness of his heart is gone,
The freshness of his days!
Pensieroso.
