When man had ceased to utter his lament	A
	-
A god then let me tell my tale of sorrow	B
	-
WHAT hope of once more meeting is there now	C
In the still closed blossoms of this day	D
Both heaven and hell thrown open seest thou	C
What wav'ring thoughts within the bosom play	D
No longer doubt Descending from the sky	E
She lifts thee in her arms to realms on high	E
	-
And thus thou into Paradise wert brought	F
	-
As worthy of a pure and endless life	G
Nothing was left no wish no hope no thought	F
	-
Here was the boundary of thine inmost strife	G
And seeing one so fair so glorified	H
The fount of yearning tears was straightway dried	H
	-
No motion stirr'd the day's revolving wheel	I
	-
In their own front the minutes seem'd to go	B
The evening kiss a true and binding seal	I
	-
Ne'er changing till the morrow's sunlight glow	B
The hours resembled sisters as they went	A
Yet each one from another different	J
	-
The last hour's kiss so sadly sweet effac'd	J
	-
A beauteous network of entwining love	K
Now on the threshold pause the feet now haste	J
	-
As though a flaming cherub bade them move	L
The unwilling eye the dark road wanders o'er	M
Backward it looks but closed it sees the door	N
	-
And now within itself is closed this breast	J
	-
As though it ne'er were open and as though	B
Vying with ev'ry star no moments blest	J
	-
Had in its presence felt a kindling glow	B
Sadness reproach repentance weight of care	O
Hang heavy on it in the sultry air	O
	-
Is not the world still left The rocky steeps	P
	-
Are they with holy shades no longer crown'd	J
Grows not the harvest ripe No longer creeps	P
	-
The espalier by the stream the copse around	J
Doth not the wondrous arch of heaven still rise	P
Now rich in shape now shapeless to the eyes	P
	-
As seraph like from out the dark clouds' chorus	P
	-
With softness woven graceful light and fair	O
Resembling Her in the blue aether o'er us	P
	-
A slender figure hovers in the air	O
Thus didst thou see her joyously advance	P
The fairest of the fairest in the dance	P
	-
Yet but a moment dost thou boldly dare	O
	-
To clasp an airy form instead of hers	P
Back to thine heart thou'lt find it better there	O
	-
For there in changeful guise her image stirs	P
What erst was one to many turneth fast	J
In thousand forms each dearer than the last	J
	-
As at the door on meeting lingerd she	Q
	-
And step by step my faithful ardour bless'd	J
For the last kiss herself entreated me	Q
	-
And on my lips the last last kiss impress'd	J
Thus clearly traced the lov'd one's form we view	R
With flames engraven on a heart so true	R
	-
A heart that firm as some embattled tower	M
	-
Itself for her her in itself reveres	P
For her rejoices in its lasting power	M
	-
Conscious alone when she herself appears	P
Feels itself freer in so sweet a thrall	S
And only beats to give her thanks in all	S
	-
The power of loving and all yearning sighs	P
	-
For love responsive were effaced and drown'd	J
While longing hope for joyous enterprise	P
	-
Was form'd and rapid action straightway found	J
If love can e'er a loving one inspire	T
Most lovingly it gave me now its fire	M
	-
And 'twas through her an inward sorrow lay	D
	-
On soul and body heavily oppress'd	J
To mournful phantoms was my sight a prey	D
	-
In the drear void of a sad tortured breast	J
Now on the well known threshold Hope hath smil'd	J
Herself appeareth in the sunlight mild	J
	-
Unto the peace of God which as we read	J
	-
Blesseth us more than reason e'er bath done	U
Love's happy peace would I compare indeed	J
	-
When in the presence of the dearest one	U
There rests the heart and there that sweetest thought	J
The thought of being hers is check'd by nought	J
	-
In the pure bosom doth a yearning float	J
	-
Unto a holier purer unknown Being	V
Its grateful aspiration to devote	J
	-
The Ever Nameless then unriddled seeing	V
We call it piety such blest delight	J
I feel a share in when before her sight	J
	-
Before her sight as 'neath the sun's hot ray	D
	-
Before her breath as 'neath the spring's soft wind	J
In its deep wintry cavern melts away	D
	-
Self love so long in icy chains confin'd	J
No selfishness and no self will are nigh	E
For at her advent they were forced to fly	E
	-
It seems as though she said quot As hours pass by	E
	-
They spread before us life with kindly plan	W
Small knowledge did the yesterday supply	E
	-
To know the morrow is conceal'd from man	W
And if the thought of evening made me start	J
The sun at setting gladden'd straight my heart	J
	-
quot Act then as I and look with joyous mind	J
	-
The moment in the face nor linger thou	C
Meet it with speed so fraught with life so kind	J
	-
In action and in love so radiant now	C
Let all things be where thou art childlike ever	M
Thus thoult be all thus thou'lt be vanquish'd never quot	J
	-
Thou speakest well methought for as thy guide	J
	-
The moment's favour did a god assign	X
And each one feels himself when by thy side	J
	-
Fate's fav'rite in a moment so divine	X
I tremble at thy look that bids me go	B
Why should I care such wisdom vast to know	B
	-
Now am I far And what would best befit	J
	-
The present minute I could scarcely tell	Y
Full many a rich possession offers it	J
	-
These but offend and I would fain repel	Y
Yearnings unquenchable still drive me on	Z
All counsel save unbounded tears is gone	A2
	-
Flow on flow on in never ceasing course	P
	-
Yet may ye never quench my inward fire	M
Within my bosom heaves a mighty force	P
	-
Where death and life contend in combat dire	T
Medicines may serve the body's pangs to still	B2
Nought but the spirit fails in strength of will	B2
	-
Fails in conception wherefore fails it so	B
	-
A thousand times her image it portrays	P
Enchanting now and now compell'd to go	B
	-
Now indistinct now clothed in purest rays	P
How could the smallest comfort here be flowing	V
The ebb and flood the coming and the going	V
	-
	-
	-
	-
Leave me here now my life's companions true	R
	-
Leave me alone on rock in moor and heath	C2
But courage open lies the world to you	R
	-
The glorious heavens above the earth beneath	C2
Observe investigate with searching eyes	P
And nature will disclose her mysteries	P
	-
To me is all I to myself am lost	J
	-
Who the immortals' fav'rite erst was thought	J
They tempting sent Pandoras to my cost	J
	-
So rich in wealth with danger far more fraught	J
They urged me to those lips with rapture crown'd	J
Deserted me and hurl'd me to the ground	J
