Not one kind look one friendly word	A
Wilt thou in chilling silence sit	B
Nor through the social hour afford	C
One cheering smile or beam of wit	B
	-
Yet still absorbed in studious care	D
Neglect to waste one look on me	E
For then my happy eyes may dare	D
To gaze and dwell unchecked on thee	E
	-
And still in silence sit nor deign	F
One gentle precious word to say	G
For silent I may then remain	F
Nor let my voice my soul betray	G
	-
This faltering voice these conscious eyes	H
My throbbing heart too plainly speak	I
There timid hopeless passion lies	H
And bids it silence keep and break	J
	-
To me how dear this twilight hour	K
Cheered by the faggot's varying blaze	L
If this be mine I ask no more	M
On morn's refulgent light to gaze	L
	-
For now while on HIS glowing cheek	I
I see the fire's red radiance fall	N
The darkest seat I softly seek	I
And gaze on HIM unseen by all	N
	-
His folded arms his studious brow	O
His thoughtful eye unmarked I see	E
Nor could his voice or words bestow	P
So dear so true a joy on me	E
	-
But he forgets that I am near	Q
Fame future fame in thought he seeks	R
To him ambition's paths appear	Q
And bright the sun of science breaks	S
	-
His heart with ardent hope is filled	T
His prospects full of beauty bloom	U
But oh my heart despair has chilled	T
My only prospect is the tomb	U
	-
One only boon from Heaven I claim	V
And may it grant the fond desire	K
That I may live to hear his fame	V
And in that throb of joy expire	W
	-
Oft hast thou marked my chilling eye	X
And mourned my cold reserve to see	E
Resolved the fickle friend to fly	X
Who seemed unjust to worth and thee	E
	-
While I o'erjoyed thy anger saw	Y
Blest proof I had not tried in vain	F
To give imperious passion law	Y
And hide my bosom's conscious pain	F
	-
But when night's sheltering darkness came	V
And none the conscious wretch could view	Z
How fiercely burned the smothered flame	V
How deep was every sigh I drew	Z
	-
Yet still to thee I'll clothe my brow	O
In all that jealous pride requires	A2
My look the type of tna's snow	P
My heart of tna's secret fires	A2
	-
One little moment short as blest	B2
Compassion Love's soft semblance wore	M
My meagre form he fondly pressed	B2
And on his beating bosom bore	M
	-
His frame with strong emotion shook	C2
And kindness tuned each faltering word	A
While I surprised with anxious look	C2
The meaning of his glance explored	C
	-
But soon my too experienced heart	D2
Read nought but generous pity there	D
I felt presumptuous hope depart	D2
And all again was dark despair	D
	-
Yet still in memory still my heart	D2
Lives o'er that fleeting bliss again	E2
I feel his glance his touch impart	D2
Emotion through each bursting vein	F
	-
And Once I cry those eyes so sweet	F2
On me with fondness deigned to shine	G2
For once I felt his bosom beat	F2
Against the conscious throbs of mine	G2
	-
Nor shall the dear remembrance die	X
While aught of life to me is given	H2
But soothe my last convulsive sigh	X
And be till then my joy my heaven	H2
