No dream his life was—but a fight!
Could any Beatrice see
A lover in that anchorite?

A Song for September
Sorrow and scarlet leaf,
Sad thoughts and sunny weather:
Ah me, this glory and this grief
Agree not well together!

Sorrow and scarlet leaf,
Sad thoughts and sunny weather:
Ah me, this glory and this grief
Agree not well together!

O Time! whose verdicts mock our own,
The only righteous judge art thou!
