ON HIS RETURN TO VAUCLUSE AFTER LAURA'S DEATHB
-
-
Valley which long hast echoed with my criesC
Stream which my flowing tears have often fedD
Beasts fluttering birds and ye who in the bedD
Of Cabrieres' wave display your speckled dyesC
Air hush'd to rest and soften'd by my sighsC
Dear path whose mazes lone and sad I treadD
Hill of delight though now delight is fledD
To rove whose haunts Love still my foot decoysE
Well I retain your old unchanging faceF
Myself how changed in whom for joy's light throngG
Infinite woes their constant mansion findH
Here bloom'd my bliss and I your tracks retraceF
To mark whence upward to her heaven she sprungI
Leaving her beauteous spoil her robe of flesh behindH

Ye vales made vocal by my plaintive layK
Ye streams embitter'd with the tears of loveL
Ye tenants of the sweet melodious groveM
Ye tribes that in the grass fringed streamlet playK
Ye tepid gales to which my sighs conveyK
A softer warmth ye flowery plains that moveN
Reflection sad ye hills where yet I roveM
Since Laura there first taught my steps to strayK
You you are still the same How changed alasO
Am I who from a state of life so blestP
Am now the gloomy dwelling place of woeQ
'Twas here I saw my love here still I traceF
Her parting steps when she her mortal vestP
Cast to the earth and left these scenes belowQ
