Narrative poems on the Female Character | ||
Serenade continued.
O Rose of Beauty, sweetly blooming,
Why com'st thou not each sense to cheer!
The air with fragrant breath perfuming!
And smiling through thy dewy tear!
The flower whose colors paint thy blushes,
O thou, a thousand times more dear!
That flower its world of sweetness flushes,
Thy guardian thorns alone appear.
Why com'st thou not each sense to cheer!
The air with fragrant breath perfuming!
And smiling through thy dewy tear!
The flower whose colors paint thy blushes,
O thou, a thousand times more dear!
That flower its world of sweetness flushes,
Thy guardian thorns alone appear.
Shine out, bright Star! for thee I languish;
O shine, to light my joyless eye!
Come forth, fair Rose! my heart's keen anguish
At thy sweet breath at once will fly.
Is 't not the Star of Beauty beameth?
Is 't not the Rose of Beauty nigh?
O Lady! if thy captive dreameth,
May he in this blest vision die!
O shine, to light my joyless eye!
Come forth, fair Rose! my heart's keen anguish
At thy sweet breath at once will fly.
20
Is 't not the Rose of Beauty nigh?
O Lady! if thy captive dreameth,
May he in this blest vision die!
