Mine own , my gentle child , My fountain of all love , With a spirit soft and mild , And a firmness naught can move ! Entranced I gaze upon thee , - Thou chaser of my gloom ; When a lover ' s heart hath won thee , I will welcome but the tomb . How glorious is thy brow , Thine eyes how beaming bright , Thy voice of silvery flow , And thine intellect of light ! While listening to thy speech I mark thy judgment ' s power , I hold thy love more rich , Than the spoils of beauty ' s bower . I have tasted beauty ' s lip , I have gazed on woman ' s charms , I have drained the cup too deep , And my heart no longer warms .
But thy love , so sweet and pure , In which passion may not dwell ; Oh ! might it but endure , Then this bosom were no hell . Thy kisses fall like balm , On mine eyelids and my heart , Like a summer evening ' s calm . May we never , never , part ! Oh ! gentle is each thought While I gaze upon thy face ; The peace I long have sought , Is in thy abiding place . Yet I joy to aee the flashing Of the lightning in thine eye , Which , with ruin round thee crashing , Would still pale fear defy .
