第56章 A FAREWELL

Farewell,oh dream of mine!

I dare not stay;

The hour is come,and time Will not delay:

Pleasant and dear to me Wilt thou remain;

No future hour Brings thee again.

She stands,the Future dim,And draws me on,And shows me dearer joys -But thou art gone!

Treasures and Hopes more fair,Bears she for me,And yet I linger,Oh dream,with thee!

Other and brighter days,Perhaps she brings;

Deeper and holier songs,Perchance she sings;But thou and I,fair time,We too must sever -Oh dream of mine,Farewell for ever!
