Her Secret Grief - ZaunköniG - 21.05.2007 Her Secret Grief “O, sure” some same, “to her kind Heaven hath dealt Freedom from earthly penance, that can share The common ills of others, and their care Surely so free a heart hath never felt The fetters of great sorrows, that can melt With simple tears, and laugh with simple joys.” Alas! they had not heard the hidden sighs Folded within thy conscience, pure of guilt: There was another’s heart that answered thee; He grew beside thee, till your hopes were one; Far off he sleeps, afar beyond the sea; And thou hast vowed through Death’s great gates alone To pass into thy bridal, and to lay His image near thee on thy dying day. |
