Greek NEA turannei	A
EURPID Medea v	B
	-
	-
Nay tempt me not to love again	A
There was a time when love was sweet	C
Dear Nea had I known thee then	A
Our souls had not been slow to meet	C
But oh this weary heart hath run	A
So many a time the rounds of pain	A
Not even for thee thou lovely one	A
Would I endure such pangs again	A
	-
If there be climes where never yet	D
The print of beauty's foot was set	D
Where man may pass his loveless nights	E
Unfevered by her false delights	E
Thither my wounded soul would fly	F
Where rosy cheek or radiant eye	F
Should bring no more their bliss or pain	A
Nor fetter me to earth again	A
Dear absent girl whose eyes of light	G
Though little prized when all my own	A
Now float before me soft and bright	G
As when they first enamoring shone	A
What hours and days have I seen glide	H
While fit enchanted by thy side	H
Unmindful of the fleeting day	I
I've let life's dream dissolve away	I
O bloom of youth profusely shed	J
O moments I simply vainly sped	J
Yet sweetly too or Love perfumed	K
The flame which thus my life consumed	K
And brilliant was the chain of flowers	L
In which he led my victim hours	L
	-
Say Nea say couldst thou like her	M
When warm to feel and quick to err	N
Of loving fond of roving fonder	M
This thoughtless soul might wish to wander	M
Couldst thou like her the wish reclaim	O
Endearing still reproaching never	M
Till even this heart should burn with shame	O
And be thy own more fixt than ever	M
No no on earth there's only one	A
Could bind such faithless folly fast	P
And sure on earth but one alone	A
Could make such virtue false at last	P
	-
Nea the heart which she forsook	Q
For thee were but a worthless shrine	A
Go lovely girl that angel look	Q
Must thrill a soul more pure than mine	A
Oh thou shalt be all else to me	B
That heart can feel or tongue can feign	A
I'll praise admire and worship thee	B
But must not dare not love again	A
	-
	-
	-
tale iter omne cave	R
PROPERT lib iv eleg	Q
	-
I pray you let us roam no more	S
Along that wild and lonely shore	S
Where late we thoughtless strayed	T
'Twas not for us whom heaven intends	U
To be no more than simple friends	U
Such lonely walks were made	T
	-
That little Bay where turning in	A
From ocean's rude and angry din	A
As lovers steal to bliss	V
The billows kiss the shore and then	A
Flow back into the deep again	A
As though they did not kiss	V
	-
Remember o'er its circling flood	W
In what a dangerous dream we stood	X
The silent sea before us	Y
Around us all the gloom of grove	Z
That ever lent its shade to love	A2
No eye but heaven's o'er us	Y
	-
I saw you blush you felt me tremble	B2
In vain would formal art dissemble	B2
All we then looked and thought	C2
'Twas more than tongue could dare reveal	D2
'Twas every thing that young hearts feel	D2
By Love and Nature taught	C2
	-
I stopped to cull with faltering hand	E2
A shell that on the golden sand	E2
Before us faintly gleamed	F2
I trembling raised it and when you	G2
Had kist the shell I kist it too	G2
How sweet how wrong it seemed	F2
	-
Oh trust me 'twas a place an hour	M
The worst that e'er the tempter's power	M
Could tangle me or you in	A
Sweet Nea let us roam no more	S
Along that wild and lonely shore	S
Such walks may be our ruin	A
	-
	-
	-
You read it in these spell bound eyes	H2
And there alone should love be read	J
You hear me say it all in sighs	H2
And thus alone should love be said	J
	-
Then dread no more I will not speak	Q
Although my heart to anguish thrill	I2
I'll spare the burning of your cheek	Q
And look it all in silence still	I2
	-
Heard you the wish I dared to name	O
To murmur on that luckless night	G
When passion broke the bonds of shame	O
And love grew madness in your sight	G
	-
Divinely through the graceful dance	J2
You seemed to float in silent song	Q
Bending to earth that sunny glance	J2
As if to light your steps along	Q
	-
Oh how could others dare to touch	K2
That hallowed form with hand so free	B
When but to look was bliss too much	K2
Too rare for all but Love and me	B
	-
With smiling eyes that little thought	C2
How fatal were the beams they threw	G2
My trembling hands you lightly caught	L2
And round me like a spirit flew	G2
	-
Heedless of all but you alone	A
And you at least should not condemn	A
If when such eyes before me shone	A
My soul forgot all eyes but them	A
	-
I dared to whisper passion's vow	M2
For love had even of thought bereft me	B
Nay half way bent to kiss that brow	M2
But with a bound you blushing left me	B
	-
Forget forget that night's offence	J2
Forgive it if alas you can	A
'Twas love 'twas passion soul and sense	J2
'Twas all that's best and worst in man	A
	-
That moment did the assembled eyes	J2
Of heaven and earth my madness view	G2
I should have seen thro' earth and skies	J2
But you alone but only you	G2
	-
Did not a frown from you reprove	G2
Myriads of eyes to me were none	A
Enough for me to win your love	G2
And die upon the spot when won	A
