James Thomson (Джеймс Томсон)


* * *


When last we parted, thou wert young and fair,
How beautiful let fond remembrance say!
Alas! since then old time has stolen away
Full thirty years, leaving my temples bare.--
So has it perished like a thing of air,
The dream of love and youth!--now both are grey
Yet still remembering that delightful day,
Though time with his cold touch has blanched my hair,
Though I have suffered many years of pain
Since then, though I did never think to live
To hear that voice or see those eyes again,
I can a sad but cordial greeting give,
And for thy welfare breathe as warm a prayer--
As when I loved thee young and fair! 



James Thomson's other poems:
  1. The Morning Lark
  2. The Happy Man
  3. From Those Eternal Regions
  4. On the Hoop
  5. Hymn to God's Power
