Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
Oh, oft at night as silent I before my window stand The silvery crest of Luna looking down From miles away, far in another land, And myriad stars, as diamonds in a crown, There twinkle brilliant in the azure sky; Celestial gladness seizes on me then, As in the moonlight, by yon narrow glen, My fancy paints one, ?oating, fair, on high.
Yes, now I greet one, fairy-like in grace, A blooming figure nears me, soft brown eyes Craze at me, an angelic, lovely face With cherry lips, as from far fairer skies 't is none but she, the chosen of my heart, Whose tender presence cheers my lonely hours, Her merry laugh, - Oh, loveliest of all ?owers, In thy pure breast pray that we ne'er shall part!
