First Line: Since coelia's my foe
Last Line: No answer again.
Subject(s): Farewell; Love - Unrequited; Parting


SINCE Coelia's my foe;
To a desert I'll go!
Where some river
For ever
Shall echo my woe!

The trees shall appear
More relenting than her;
In the morning
Adorning
Each leaf with a tear.

When I make my sad moan
To the rocks, all alone;
From each hollow
Will follow
Some pitiful groan.

But, with silent disdain,
She requites all my pain!
To my mourning,
Returning
No answer again.
