THE REGRET by LEVI BISHOP

First Line: IF INCLINATION RULED THE HOUR
Last Line: LEVI BISHOP.
Subject(s): DREAMS; HAPPINESS; REGRET; NIGHTMARES; JOY; DELIGHT;

If inclination ruled the hour,
My heart would fly away;
Impelled as by resistless power,
To see the wedding-day.

And yet tho' distant far I seem
I'm present none the less;
O, may there spring from bridal dream,
A world of happiness.

Ever truly yours,
LEVI BISHOP.
