Of joy the sojourn, and of wealth the mart;

And Otway, Radcliffe, Schiller, Shakspeare's art

Had stamp'd her image in me, and even so,

Although I found her thus, we did not part,

Perchance even dearer in her day of woe

Than when she was a boast, a marvel and a show.

I can repeople with the past—and of

The present there is still for eye, and thought,

And meditation chasten'd down, enough;

And more, it may be, than I hoped or sought;
