The Dewdrop.
Ah, be not vain. In yon flower-bell,
As rare a pearl, did I appear,
As ever grew in ocean shell,
To dangle at a Helen's ear.
As rare a pearl, did I appear,
As ever grew in ocean shell,
To dangle at a Helen's ear.
So was I till a cruel blast
Arose and swept me to the ground,
When, in the jewel of the past,
Earth but a drop of water found.
Arose and swept me to the ground,
When, in the jewel of the past,
Earth but a drop of water found.
