Time & Brevity
Years, Many Parti-Colour'd Years
From Works and Life, ed. Forster, vol. VIII (1876)
Time & Brevity
Years, many parti-colour'd years,
Some have crept on, and some have flown,
Since first before me fell those tears
I never could see fall alone.
Years, not so many, are to come,
Years not so varied, when from you
One more will fall: when, carried home,
I see it not, nor hear adieu.
