HIS RETURN, by DESBORDES VALMORE First Line: Tis hate, alas, I ought to feel Last Line: He says we shall not part again. | |||
'TIS hate, alas, I ought to feel-- Such sorrow has he caused my heart, So full of tears, and wounding smart, So desolate, so slow to heal; 'Tis hate, alas, I ought to feel! In the kiss claimed on his return, When all his soul came back to me, My own, which fain would hidden be, Saw how his love began to burn In the kiss claimed at his return. He says we shall not part again; What fear is mingled with delight! Fate wills our hearts should reunite. To struggle further is in vain, He says we shall not part again. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE ROSES OF SAADI by DESBORDES VALMORE THE CAMELOPARD by HILAIRE BELLOC OLD SUSAN by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE A SPIRITUAL by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR GOD'S DETERMINATIONS: THE JOY OF CHURCH FELLOWSHIP RIGHTLY ATTENDED by EDWARD TAYLOR SONNET: 14 by RICHARD BARNFIELD SONNETS FOR NEW YORK CITY: 2.
