 MUSIC ON WATER

does Remembrance weep when we forget?

From whither brings she back an old delight?

Why do we weep that once we laughed? and yet

Why are we sad that once our hearts were light?

I sometimes think the days that we made bright

Are damned within us, and we hear them yell,

Deep in the solitude of that wide hell,

Because we welcome in some new regret.
