The Wind Was Rough Which Tore

The wind was rough which tore
  That leaf from its parent tree
  The fate was cruel which bore
  The withering corpse to me

  We wander on we have no rest
  It is a dreary way

  What shadow is it
  That ever moves before [my] eyes
  It has a brow of ghostly whiteness
