Lines Written Beneath a Picture

By George Gordon, Lord ByronSource: George Gordon, Lord Byron - PoetryDB (Public Domain)51 words

Dear object of defeated care!

Though now of Love and thee bereft,

To reconcile me with despair

Thine image and my tears are left.

'Tis said with Sorrow Time can cope;

But this I feel can ne'er be true:

For by the death-blow of my Hope

My Memory immortal grew.
