To H. W.: In days of old, if any days be old... - ZaunköniG - 16.03.2008 To H. W. In days of old, if any days be old, Beneath the shadow of the ancient hill, We roam'd together by the wandering rill; Thou a light-footed hunter, free and bold, And I a straggler from the self-same fold, Rough, ragged, wild, with haggard looks that still Dwelt on the ground, as if predestined ill Blighted the joy of youth. Twelve years are told, And now we meet again; thou, like the wind That drives the grey cloud to the infinite sea, Hast traversed all the world's variety, From Western isles to Oriental Ind; I am the lazy pool among the heather That slumbers sound in spite of wind and weather. |
