BLACK’ON frowns east on Maidon, And westward to the sea, But on neither is his frown laden With scorn, as his frown on me!

At dawn my heart grew heavy, I could not sip the wine, I left the jocund bevy And that young man o’ mine.

The roadside elms pass by me,— Why do I sink with shame When the birds a-perch there eye me? They, too, have done the same!
