L.
Whither to fly? Alas, my sightCan happy love's sweet blossom blight!
My form can change the tender care
Of widow'd grief, to wild despair!
I may not with the poor man toil!
I may not with the happy smile!
I may not with the mourner weep!
I may not with the buried sleep!
68
I go to thee, my native home!
