To Mrs Reynolds' Cat

The poets of the romanticism movement.

capital r forever.

Some might lament that I were cold,

As I, when this sweet day is gone,

Which my lost heart, too soon grown old,

Insults with this untimeley moan;

They might lament - for I am one

Whom men love not - and yet regret,

Unlike this day, which, when the sun

Shall on its stainless glory set,

Will linger, though enjoyed, like joy in memory yet
