| 573. Years |
| |
| YEARS, many parti-colour'd years, | |
| Some have crept on, and some have flown | |
| Since first before me fell those tears | |
| I never could see fall alone. | |
| |
| Years, not so many, are to come, | 5 |
| Years not so varied, when from you | |
| One more will fall: when, carried home, | |
| I see it not, nor hear Adieu. | |
