First Line: How like her! But 'tis she herself
Last Line: My only love was dead.
Subject(s): London
How like her! But 'tis she herself,
Comes up the crowded street,
How little did I think, the morn,
My only love to meet!
Who else that motion and that mien?
Whose else that airy tread?
For one strange moment I forgot
My only love was dead.
