Not illustrated. 1839 edition. Excerpt: ...She laugh'd at a passion so wild, She call'd it presumptuous and vain; And the madman rejoiced that she smiled, Though he knew she but smiled in disdain. For, though I could never persuade My heart that she e'er could be mine; Though I knew to be loved by a maid, In mind and in form thus divine, Was bliss so peculiar and high, That it never could fall to my lot; Yet I loved her, and never thought why; And hoped--though I dared not say what.

And when I was forced to depart, My feelings no language can tell; I bade her adieu in my heart, But my lips could not murmur " farewell!" Yet absence has proved to me kind, And my bosom once more is at rest; Heal'd up is the wound of my mind, And cold is the flame of my breast.
