Euphrenia or the Test of Love | ||
XVIII.
He seeks the ancestral mansion,But in his speaking face
The stamp of feelings uncontrolled
Has left its searing trace;
The lips compressed, the frowning brow,
The eyes all downward bent,
Betray the man who has been galled,
And foiled in his intent;
While the flushed cheek, the heaving chest,
The low convulsive sigh,
Show that, within his inmost heart,
Passion doth lurking lie.
