Our Lemnian hammers lustily.

  Shall singing fly
Through many a wanton's eye.

The tendrils of my soul are twined
With thine, though many a mile apart.

In the assurance that he so loved me
This heart of mine would glow
With pulses sweeter than the sweetest be
That colder ones can know.

Villa Serbelloni, Bellaggio

The fountain shivers lightly in the rain,
The laurels drip, the fading roses fall,
The marble satyr plays a mournful strain
That leaves the rainy fragrance musical.
