SONG. False as thou art, yet still farewell! With every wish that love can frame, With fond hopes for thy happiness, With blessings breathed upon thy name.

I loved, I may not say how well, While that I thought my heart might be A thing of bliss;—now I can charm No more, but I can die for thee!

Farewell, farewell! and I will shroud My wrongs in silence, for thy sake; Tho' still adored, henceforth my heart's    Sole proof of love shall be —to break. L. E. L.
