XXIV.

“A Father spurned me from his breast,
“Because I loved whom he forbade;
“Nor elsewhere might my sorrows rest
“Than in the bosom of the dead!
“He too was in the world alone,
“And sought the scenes of memory,
“Where he his youth's past joys might own,
“And bless himself with them and me.
121

“One were our lives—our thoughts were blended—
“Nor be our lovely child forgot —
“Her cherub smiles our bark attended —
“In death divide us not!
“United in felicity,
“Why separate in woe?
“Why two caught up into the sky,
“And left the third below?
“In that blest world, without me — he
“Must feel a want in bliss;
“Nor can his joys all-perfect be
“While I remain in this!”
