Amorea, The Lost Lover | ||
16
On his departing.
1
VVhen I was forced to departFrom Amorea ever dear,
Think you how near
A sadness then did touch my heart.
2
An Adamantine Law hath fors'tMe to depart and leave my bliss,
Ah sure it is
A law shall alwayes be accurs't.
3
Yet go I must, and leave behindMy happyness unto my greif,
And no releif
Is left unto my troubled mind.
4
Thus should my Amorea know,Alas she doth, but will not give
Any Reprive,
Unto my helpless overthrow.
