TO AURELIA.

WRITTEN IN 1802.

One kind kiss, my love, before
We bid a long adieu!
Ah! let not this fond heart deplore
Thy cold cheek's pallid hue.

One soft sweet smile before I go!
That fancy may repeat,
And whisper, mid the sighs of woe,
My love, we yet shall meet.

One dear embrace, and then we part—
We part to meet no more!
I bear a sad and lonely heart
To pine on India's shore.

A heart that once has lov'd like mine
No second love can know!
A heart that once has throbb'd with thine
Must other love forego.
