LOVE'S BURIAL-PLACE
Lady.If Love be dead—
Poet.
And I aver it!
Lady.
Tell me, Bard! where Love lies buried?
Poet.
Love lies buried where 'twas born:
Oh, gentle dame! think it no scorn
If, in my fancy, I presume
To call thy bosom poor Love's Tomb.
476
‘Here lies a Love that once seem'd mine,
But caught a chill, as I divine,
And died at length of a Decline.’
1828.
