NEW SPRING: 19, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Once again my heart is vanquish'd
Last Line: Hold the fond fool in derision.
Subject(s): Hearts; Love


ONCE again my heart is vanquish'd,
And my rancour is subsiding;
Once again hath May breath'd on me
Feelings tender and confiding.

Once more late and early haste I
Through the walks the most frequented,
Under every bonnet seek I
For my fair one's face lamented.

Once more at the verdant river
On the bridge I take my station;
Peradventure she will come there,
And will see my desolation.

In the waterfall's loud music
Hear I once again soft sighing,
And my gentle heart well knoweth
What the white waves are replying,

Once again in mazy pathways
I am lost in dreamy vision,
And the birds in every thicket
Hold the fond fool in derision.
