THINE EYES STILL SHINED
12 lines✦
hine eyes still shined for me, though farI lonely roved the land or sea:As I behold yon evening star,Which yet beholds not me. This morn I climbed the misty hillAnd roamed the pastures through;How danced thy form before my pathAmidst the deep-eyed dew! When the redbird spread his sable wing,And showed his side of flame;When the rosebud ripened to the rose,In both I read thy name.
