WHAT HAS BEEN LOST IS LOST.
Why waste regrets on shattered hopes that beatThemselves to death against a woman's breast?Why seek in Arctic fields of snow and sleetFor sunbeams of the Gardens of the Blest?
What has been lost, is lost! and nevermore,Through all the changes of the unborn years,That sigh and waste away upon the shoreOf Time, can be recalled by prayers or tears!
