Long years are gone , and I am old : My locks once wore the lion ' s gold ; Life ' s winter now , with double smart , Sheds frost upon my head and heart ; And thus I stand a lonely tree All bare and desolate to see ,
And worse within , since reft of thee ; Delora ! Delora !—name of many woes I How coffin'd passion freshly glows At that sweet sound of melody I For thou wert bliss and bane to me ; And I ne ' er since have clos'd mine eyes When day-light died within the skies , Without most agonizing sighs ; Delora 1
1 was a hunter of the woods , Who scaled the rocks and stemnVd the floods ; Bounding with strength my course I sped , And felt Heav ' n ' s glory round my head ; I never dream d that one so free And ocean-wild , enslav'd could be , — But I became a child for thee ; Delora I I saw her at her father ' s door , Toying with his long locks all hoar ;
While dim he smiled , and fondled down The braided jasmine from her own . Her liquid eye a moment turn'd ; With cnasten'd love my bosom yearn'd , Till time gave hope , and then it burn'd ; Delora !
Andrea Como , etsnding in utter deaolstfon and ¦ olitode , poureth forth the impassioned history of has soul .
Deep krrc , that melteth all thing * to to own level , as an absorbing beatitude , muat erer be a primitire element * like to the grand simplicity of the sea and the heavens , which are also as children in the eye of Eternity .
