ON A DEAD BABE
ОглавлениеFly away! thou heavenly one! —
I do hail thee on thy flight!
Sorrow? thou hath tasted none —
Perfect joy is yourn by right.
Fly away! and bear our love
To thy kith and kin above!
I can tetch thy finger-tips
Ca'mly, and bresh back the hair
From thy forr'ed with my lips,
And not leave a teardrop thare. —
Weep fer Tomps and Ruth– and me—
But I can not weep fer thee.
