Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Grief; Love - Loss Of; Sorrow; Sadness
He takes his leave,—and all her sun of life
Sinks with his courser in the crimson west;
And maiden hopes and fears in fitful strife
Now wage tempestuous war in her fair breast;
Her deep-drawn sighs are mutinously rife—
O to recall that late-bewelcomed guest!
The stealthy dark draws close on autumn eves,
Love's plaint alone the brooding silence grieves.
