AD ASTRA: 50 by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE

First Line: SO NOW I WAIT, IF HAPLY I MAY FIND
Last Line: THEY TOLD OF DEPTHS I WOULD HAVE DIED TO PROVE!
Subject(s): HEARTS; KISSES; LOVE;
'So now I wait, if haply I may find
A maid that shall some fleet resemblance bear
To Her, who all unconsciously did bind
Me to herself with many a silken snare—
Have I not seen her smile when none was near?
Those sorrowing lips, what could they tell of love?
They told of depths @3I@1 would have died to prove!
