IN POETAM QUENDAM AMATORIUM
TRANSLATION BY THE AUTHOR.
Why paint with glowing tints the burning kiss,The thrills of passion, all the lover's bliss?
Youth needs not fancy's aid to wake desires,
Warm in the vigor of his native fires;
While age shall sorrowing view the rapturous scene,
And deeper sigh for joys that once have been.
| Poetical works of the late F. Sayers | |
