    Sorrow preys upon
    Its solitude, and nothing more diverts it
    From its sad visions of the other world
    Than calling it at moments back to this.
    The busy have no time for tears.

A happier lot were mine,
If I must lose thee, to go down to earth,
For I read more

A happier lot were mine,
If I must lose thee, to go down to earth,
For I shall have no hope when thou art gone,--
Nothing but sorrow. Father have I none,
And no dear mother.
