Love
Tears, and Tears Only, Are These Eyes That Late
From Works and Life, ed. Forster, vol. VIII (1876)
Love
Tears, and tears only, are these eyes that late
In thine could contemplate
Charms which, like stars, in swift succession rise . .
No longer to these eyes!
Love shows the place he flew from; there, bereft
Of motion. Grief is left.
