ON A CORNELIAN HEART WHICH WAS BROKEN.
1
Ill-fated Heart! and can it be,That thou shouldst thus be rent in twain?
Have years of care for thine and thee
Alike been all employed in vain?
2
Yet precious seems each shattered part,And every fragment dearer grown,
Since he who wears thee feels thou art
A fitter emblem of his own.
March 16, 1812.
