If far from me the Fates removeDomestic peace, connubial love, The prattling ring, the social cheer, Affection's voice, affection's tear, Ye sterner powers, that bind the heart, To me your iron aid impart!O teach me when the nights are chill, And my fireside is lone and still;When to the blaze that crackles near, I turn a tired and pensive ear, And Nature conquering bids me sighFor love's soft accents whispering nigh;O teach me, on that heavenly road, That leads to Truth's occult abode, To wrap... my soul in dreams sublime, Till earth and care no more be mine. Let bless'd Philosophy impartHer soothing measures to my heart;And while with Plato's ravish'd earsI list the music of the spheres, Or on the mystic symbols pore, That hide the Chald's sublimer lore, I shall not brood on summers gone, Nor think that I am all alone. Fanny! upon thy breast I may not lie! Fanny! thou dost not hear me when I speak!Where art thou, love?--Around I turn my eye, And as I turn, the tear is on my cheek. Was it a dream?
