Poems
Darling, come back to me! When others came
And whispered love-words in my listening ear,
Fair Constancy breathed to my heart thy name,
And that dear sound was all that I could hear!
And whispered love-words in my listening ear,
Fair Constancy breathed to my heart thy name,
And that dear sound was all that I could hear!
Darling, come back to me! my spirit tires,
Sending across the distance love's wild plea,
Freighted with all the heart's and soul's desires,
To be with thee, my loved one, only thee!
Sending across the distance love's wild plea,
Freighted with all the heart's and soul's desires,
To be with thee, my loved one, only thee!
