Tell me, thou soul of her I love, Ah! Tell me whither art thou fled? To what delightful world above Appointed for the happy dead? Or dost thou, free at pleasure, roam, And sometimes share thy lover's woe; Where, void of thee, his cheerless home Can now, alas! no comfort know. Oh! if thou hov'rest round my walk, While under ev'ry well-known tree I to thy fancied shadow talk, And ev'ry tear is full of thee; Should then the weary eye of grief, Beside some sympathetic stream, In slumber find a short relief, Oh! visit thou my soothing dream.
