AFFECTIONS lose their object; Time brings forth

No successors; and, lodged in memory, If love exist no longer, it must die,Wanting accustomed food, must pass from earth,

Or never hope to reach a second birth. This sad belief, the happiest that is left To thousands, share not Thou; howe'er bereft,

Scorned, or neglected, fear not such a dearth.

Though poor and destitute of friends thou art,

Perhaps the sole survivor of thy race, One to whom Heaven assigns that mournful part

The utmost solitude of age to face, Still shall be left some corner of the heart

Where Love for living Thing can find a place. 1846. 1850.

O THOU wild Fancy, check thy wing! No more

Those thin white flakes, those purple clouds explore!

Nor there with happy spirits speed thy flight

1 The dates for Coleridge's poems are made up from the Shepherd-Prideaux and the Haney bibliographies, and from the excellent notes to Campbell's edition of the Poetical Works.

Bathed in rich amber-glowing floods of light;

Nor in yon gleam, where slow descends the day,

With western peasant hail the morning ray!

Ah! rather bid the perished pleasures

move,

A shadowy train, across the soul of Love!

O'er disappointment's wintry desert fling Each flower that wreathed the dewy locks of Spring,

When blushing, like a bride, from Hope's trim bower

She leapt, awakened by the pattering shower.

Now sheds the sinking Sun a deeper gleam,

Aid, lovely Sorceress! aid thy Poets dream!

With faery wand O bid the Maid arise. Chaste Joyance dancing in her bright blue eyes:

As erst when from the Muses' calm abode

I came, with Learning's meed not un

bestowed:

When as she twined a laurel round my brow,

And met my kiss, and half returned my

O'er all my frame shot rapid my thrille heart,

And every nerve confessed the electri dart.
