• Sweet is true love though given in vain, in vain;
  And sweet is death who puts an end to pain:
  I know not which is sweeter, no, not I.
  Love, art thou sweet? then bitter death must be:
  Love, thou art bitter; sweet is death to me.
  O Love, if death be sweeter, let me die.
  ...
  I fain would follow love, if that could be;
  I needs must follow death, who calls for me;
  Call and I follow, I follow! let me die.

  And dipt in baths of hissing tears,
  And batter'd with the shocks of doom,
  To shape and use.

• Los brazos del Amor rodearon el cuello de la Esperanza,
  Y la Esperanza besó al Amor, y el Amor aspiró su aliento
  En ese beso cercano y bebió sus cuentos susurrados.
  Decían que el Amor moriría cuando la Esperanza se fuera.
  Y el Amor lloró largo tiempo, y se afligió tras la Esperanza;
  Al fin buscó la memoria, y recorrieron
  Los mismos viejos caminos donde el Amor había caminado con la Esperanza,
  Y la Memoria alimentó el alma del Amor con lágrimas.

  The larkspur listens, "I hear; I hear;"
  And the lily whispers, "I wait."

  I loved you and I deemed you beautiful,
  I cannot brook to see your beauty marred
  Through evil spite: and if ye love me not,

  Than to be loved again of you - farewell;
  And though ye kill my hope, not yet my love,
  Vex not yourself: ye will not see me more.
