الصفحة 135 - Could I but bring thee from the shades of night Again to view this golden light, To leave that boat, to leave that dreary shore, Where Cocytus deep and wide Rolls along his sullen tide ! For thou, O best of women, thou alone For thy lord's life daredst give thy own. Light lie the earth upon that gentle breast, And be thou ever blest ! But should he choose to wed again, Mine and thy children's hearts would hold him in disdain.
