A Farewell

 Flow down, cold rivulet, to the sea,
 Thy tribute wave deliver:
No more by thee my steps shall be,
 For ever and for ever.


Flow, softly flow, by lawn and lea,
 A rivulet then a river:
Nowhere by thee my steps shall be
 For ever and for ever.


But here will sigh thine alder tree
 And here thine aspen shiver;
And here by thee will hum the bee,
 For ever and for ever.


A thousand suns will stream on thee,
 A thousand moons will quiver;
But not by thee my steps shall be,
 For ever and for ever.
