AMORIS EXSUL: 6. FORESHADOWINGS, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: It was your silence that I loved
Last Line: Without a word we meet again.
Subject(s): Love; Silence


It was your silence that I loved,
Musical pauses of a fine
Remoter harmony that moved
Across your spirit's boundary line.

Ah! in what visions have I heard,
Musical lips, eloquent eyes,
How many a song without a word,
Divine demands, subtle replies!

All that Love ever had to say
Your eyes have said to me, in vain.
Hopeless, estranged, unchanged, to-day
Without a word we meet again.
