WEDDED TO ANOTHER.
Did retrospection on her soulWith subtle power steal;Awaking in her eyes a lightShe dares not now reveal?The present hour belongs to him,And he may deem it fair;The past I claim, for well I know,My image triumphs there.
Though fate has parted us, and nowHer life with his will twine,Thank God! he may not—cannot knowThe love that once was mine.
