    To feel thee; thou shalt kiss the child asleep,
    And dry the moistened curls that overspread
    His temples, while his breathing grows more deep.

While all my thoughts congeal to verse!

A breeze came wandering from the sky,
Light as the whispers of a dream;
He put the o'erhanging grasses by,
And softly stooped to kiss the stream,
The pretty stream, the flattered stream,
The shy, yet unreluctant stream.

Afraid to blow too much, too faintly blew;
Or out of breath with joy, could not enlarge

Heed not what he says, he deceives, he deceives;

The wind is awake, pretty leave, pretty leaves,
Heed not what he says, he deceives, he deceives;
Over and over

He has lisped the same love (and forgotten it, too).
He will be lisping and pledging to you.
