12 Had bards as many realms as rhymes,

Thy charms might raise new Antonies.

5. Though Fate forbids such things to be,

Yet, by thine eyes and ringlets curled!

I cannot lose a world for thee,

But would not lose thee for a World. November 14, 1809. [MS. M. First published, Childe Harold, 1812 (4to).]

THE SPELL IS BROKE, THE CHARM IS FLOWN!

WRITTEN AT ATHENS, JANUARY 16, 1810.
