Come to me in my dreams, and then
\nBy day I shall be well again!
\nFor so the night will more than pay
\nThe hopeless longing of the day.<\/p>\n
Come, as thou cam’st a thousand times,
\nA messenger from radiant climes,
\nAnd smile on the new world, and be
\nAs kind to others as to me!<\/p>\n
Or, as thou never cam’st in sooth,
\nCome now, and let me dream it truth;
\nAnd part my hair, and kiss my brow,
\nAnd say: My love! why sufferest thou?<\/p>\n
Come to me in my dreams, and then
\nBy day I shall be well again!
\nFor so the night will more than pay
\nThe hopeless longing of the day.<\/p>\n
