A YEAR AGO
Yes
, I was walking yonder
Only a year ago,
But the blue of heaven was fonder,
More white the snow.
Only a year ago,
But the blue of heaven was fonder,
More white the snow.
A year? nay, the sun burns colder;
'Tis a million years are fled,
And the old Earth is æons older,
And Love is dead.
'Tis a million years are fled,
And the old Earth is æons older,
And Love is dead.
