| | I TO dream of love, and, waking, to remember you: | |
| As though, being dead, one dreamed of heaven, and woke in hell. | |
| At night my lovely dreams forget the old farewell: | |
| Ah! wake not by his side, lest you remember too! | |
| |
II I set all Rome between us: with what joy I set | 5 |
| The wonder of the world against my worlds delight! | |
| Rome, that hast conquered worlds, with intellectual might | |
| Capture my heart, and teach my memory to forget! | | | | |
