Listen in the reader

Then my last look shall be at you, Ye blessed things that still I cherish; ’Tis well the latest things I view, Should charm me, even as I perish! Farewell, farewell; life’s dream is going; And I shall wake to deathless years: But oh ye flowers, so sweetly blowing, How can I leave you but with tears!
