Liedtext: | O tuneful voice I still deplore, Thy accents, which I hear no more, Still vibrate on my heart. In Echo's cave I long to dwell And still to hear that sad farewell When we were forced to part. Bright eyes! O that the task were mine To guard the liquid fires that shine And round your orbits play, To watch them with a vestal's care, To feed with smiles a light so fair That it may ne'er decay. |
