With song upon her lips
But sings not out the song, nor knows
The maker of it, some other mouth,
May be as fair as hers,”

In my ear sounds on:—

Mistress Mary is dead and gone!””

The years slip from me and have not fulfilled
The aspiration of my youth, to build
Some tower of song with lofty parapet.”
