AUTUMNAL LEAVES. 125 When the last shade of light On the ocean's reposing ; The sun may shine bright, Though the day-light is closing ; So, the hope that thy words May throw over my sorrow, Will be quickly dispell'd By the gloom of to-morrow. Then the dear dream of life Let me banish for ever, Since the hours that have pass'd Can return to me — never ; When friends are the truest, And hearts are the lightest, Say, are not those moments The sweetest, the brightest ? 126 AUTUMNAL LEAVES. MOTTO SE...ALS. " Where are they? — Echo answers, where?" Device — Faded flowers. It wither'd, — yes, the Passion-flow'r, With its many-coiour'd hue, 'Twill grace no more yon favour'd bow r, Nor e'er resume its fragrant pow'r, It droop'd, — far from the parent stem, On which its beauties grew, Ah, Hope ! — Ah, Passion ! — what, art thou ? A fleeting rainbow hue ! AUTUMNAL LEAVES. 127 It wither'd, — yes, the fragrant rose, The garden's envied pride, I watch'd its op'ning bud unclose, Then snatch'd it from its sweet repose, It faded, — and its damask leaves Are scattered far and wide, Ah, youth !
