What is the love of shadowy lips
That know not what they seek or press,
From whom the lure for ever slips
And fails their phantom tenderness?
(Illusion)

You and I are twined together so.

Idly falls when life is done
On the starless brow of death.

Ruined our heroic piles,
Something in your dark eyes said:
Think no more of love or smiles.

To the happy heart of yesterday,
To the love we felt in ages past.

In ages past away:
They had the love in other hours
I give to you to-day.
