Adelaide Anne Procter Cold Poems
- 1. Fidelis
You have taken back the promise
That you spoke so long ago;
Taken back the heart you gave me-
I must even let it go.
... - 2. Envy
He was the first always: Fortune
Shone bright in his face.
I fought for years; with no effort
He conquered the place:
... - 3. Doubting Heart
WHERE are the swallows fled?
Frozen and dead,
Perchance, upon some bleak and stormy shore.
O doubting heart!
