  "Such the feelings of the happy,   Such the minds of merry maidens:   Like the early dawn of spring-time,   Like the rising Sun in summer   No such radiance awaits me,   With my young heart filled with terror;   Happiness is not my portion,   Like the flat-shore of the ocean,   Like the dark rift of the storm-cloud,   Like the cheerless nights of winter!   Dreary is the day in autumn,   Dreary too the autumn evening,   Still more dreary is my future!"
