N per sereno cielo ir vaghe stelleA
-
NOTHING THAT NATURE OFFERS CAN AFFORD HIM CONSOLATIONB
-
-
Not skies serene with glittering stars inlaidC
Nor gallant ships o'er tranquil ocean dancingD
Nor gay careering knights in arms advancingD
Nor wild herds bounding through the forest gladeC
Nor tidings new of happiness delay'dC
Nor poesie Love's witchery enhancingD
Nor lady's song beside clear fountain glancingD
In beauty's pride with chastity array'dC
Nor aught of lovely aught of gay in showE
Shall touch my heart now cold within her tombF
Who was erewhile my life and light belowE
So heavy tedious sad my days unblestC
That I with strong desire invoke Death's gloomF
Her to behold whom ne'er to have seen were bestC

Nor stars bright glittering through the cool still airG
Nor proud ships riding on the tranquil mainH
Nor armed knights light pricking o'er the plainH
Nor deer in glades disporting void of careG
Nor tidings hoped by recent messengerG
Nor tales of love in high and gorgeous strainH
Nor by clear stream green mead or shady laneH
Sweet chaunted roundelay of lady fairG
Nor aught beside my heart shall e'er engageI
Sepulchred as 'tis henceforth doom'd to beJ
With her my eyes' sole mirror beam and blissK
Oh how I long this weary pilgrimageL
To close that I again that form may seeJ
Which never to have seen had been my happinessM
