Notes

  • Epigraph: 'I saw thee gaze upon my face,/Yet met with no confusion there;/One only feeling could I trace,/The sullen calmness of despair. Oh! pardon, if in crowds awhile,/I waste one thought I owe to that;/ Or self-condemned appear to smile,/Unfaithful to thy memory.'
  • Editor's note: Original poetry
  • At foot of poem: Sydney
  • 'Mourns a lost love.' - Webby
