Jewels of Romance
A FEAR
The years between have not saddened your eyes,
Nor spirited your laughter afar:
Nor has adulation's mocking disguise
Left on your heart its heinous scar.
Yet there is something quite changed about you:
And I fear that if we part again
A longing would creep in my heart, a new
Ecstasy that I could not explain.
[43]
