POEMS
ОглавлениеPleasure! why thus desert the heart
Ianthe! you are call’d to cross the sea!
The gates of fame and of the grave
Twenty years hence my eyes may grow
Here, ever since you went abroad
Tell me not things past all belief
Proud word you never spoke, but you will speak
Ah what avails the sceptred race
With rosy hand a little girl prest down
Various the roads of life; in one
Yes; I write verses now and then
On seeing a hair of Lucretia Borgia
Once, and once only, have I seen thy face
Leaf after leaf drops off, flower after flower
Well I remember how you smiled
I strove with none, for none was worth my strife
