819 She, to Him
)ERHAPS, long hence, when I have pass'd away, Some other's feature, accent, thought like mine, Will carry you back to what I used to say, And bring some memory of your love's decline. Then you may pause awhile and think, Toor jade!' And yield a sigh to me as ample due, Not as the tittle of a debt unpaid To one who could resign her all to you
And thus reflecting, you will never sec
That your thin thought, in two small words convey'd,
Was no such fleeting phantom-thought to me,
But the Whole Life wherein my part was play'd;
And you amid its fitful masquerade
A Thought as I in yours but seem to be.

When I've overgot The world somewhat, When things cost not
