Mon bien-aimé s’en est allé,
Emportant mon cœur désolé!

Sonnet XXI. To Cyriac Skinner

© John Milton

Cyriac, whose grandsire on the royal bench
Of British Themis, with no mean applause
Pronounc'd and in his volumes taught our laws
Which others at their bar so often wrench;

Human Life

© Samuel Rogers

An hour like this is worth a thousand passed
In pomp or ease - 'Tis present to the last!
Years glide away untold - 'Tis still the same!
As fresh, as fair as on the day it came!

At the station one bright sunny day
When a stranger appeared with a big flowing beard
And a habit of plenty to say

 The murmur of the mourning ghost
 That keeps the shadowy kine,
 'Oh, Keith of Ravelston,
 The sorrows of thy line!'

A Song In Three Parts

Forty-eight weeks of my life do none desire me,
  Four am I fair,'

We have not mountains, but mounts, truncated hillocks

Rimas LXXV

?Sera verdad que cuando toca el sueno

It's thoughts—and just One Heart

© Emily Dickinson

It's thoughts—and just One Heart—
And Old Sunshine—about—
Make frugal—Ones—Content—
And two or three—for Company—
Upon a Holiday—
Crowded—as Sacrament—

FIVE years ago! you cannot choose
  But know the face of change,
Though July sleeps and Spring renews
  The gloss in gorge and range.

YOU of the past, are you present?
Draw nearer! my heart is sore.
Was yours the fall of the foot in the hall?
Was yours the face at the door?

The English Padlock

© Matthew Prior

Since This has been Authentick Truth,
By Age deliver'd down to Youth;
Tell us, mistaken Husband, tell us,
Why so Mysterious, why so Jealous?
Does the Restraint, the Bolt, the Bar
Make Us less Curious, Her less Fair?

The Wit And The Beau

© Anne Kingsmill Finch

Strephon with change of Habits press'd,
  And urg'd her to admire;
His Love alone the Other dress'd,
As Verse, or Prose became it best,
  And mov'd her soft Desire.

The Old Wooden Tub

© Edgar Albert Guest

I like to get to thinking of the old days that are gone,
When there were joys that never more the world will look upon,
The days before inventors smoothed the little cares away
And made, what seemed but luxuries then, the joys of every day;
When bathrooms were exceptions, and we got our weekly scrub
By standing in the middle of a little wooden tub.
