That lambkin felt the pressure of his head, And gave an injured bleat but one alone For when he heard what Corydamon said, And saw his face, so sad, so like his own, 102 SONGS OF SINGULARITY.
He merely ruffled up his velvet fleece, And let his gentle shepherd weep in peace.
CORYDAMON'S LAMENT. " O, lovers, give ear to my pain, And have a compassionate sigh, For ne'er was unfortunate swain More utterly wretched than I ; I loved, and I thought she loved back, But misery ! sorrow ! and woe ! Ah me... ! and alas ! and alack ! She loves me no longer I know !
O, willow, willow, willow, A lambkin is my pillow !
" So meagre with grief have I grown, My frame 's surely lost all its sap ; And even my crook 's dwindled down, I constantly fear it will snap ; My pipe plays sad notes out of tune, Tears blot out the light of the day, And whether 'tis Christmas or June, My tortured mind scarcely can say !
O, willow, willow, willow, A lambkin is my pillow !
" False nymph ! leave the home of thy youth, This vale of contentment and health, And barter devotion and truth, For baubles like fashion and wealth ; A PATHETIC PASTORAL.
