“Vain is the effort to forget.
Some day I shall be cold, I know,
As is the eternal moonlit snow
Of the high Alps, to which I go--
But ah, not yet, not yet!
Vain is the agony of grief.
'Tis true, indeed, an iron knot
Ties straitly up from mine thy lot,
And were it snapt--thou lov'st me not!
But is despair relief?”
― Lyric and Elegiac Poems

Ties straitly up from mine thy lot,
And were it snapt--thou lov'st me not!
But is despair relief?”
