TO THE MEMORY OF MRS. ROBINSON.
BY DR. WOLCOT.
Farewell to the nymph of my heart,
Farewell to the cottage and vine,
From thy scenes with a tear I depart,
Where pleasure so often was mine.
Farewell to the cottage and vine,
From thy scenes with a tear I depart,
Where pleasure so often was mine.
Remembrance shall dwell on thy smile,
Shall dwell on thy lute and thy song,
Which often my hours to beguile
Have echo'd the valleys among.
Shall dwell on thy lute and thy song,
Which often my hours to beguile
Have echo'd the valleys among.
Once more the fair scene let me view,
The cottage, the valley, and grove—
Dear valleys, for ever adieu!
Adieu to the daughter of love!
The cottage, the valley, and grove—
Dear valleys, for ever adieu!
Adieu to the daughter of love!
