“Bloom, O ye Amaranths! bloom for whom ye may,
For me ye bloom not!”
Source: Work Without Hope (1825), l. 9.
Context: Bloom, O ye Amaranths! bloom for whom ye may,
For me ye bloom not! Glide, rich streams, away!
With lips unbrightened, wreathless brow, I stroll:
And would you learn the spells that drowse my soul?
Work without Hope draws nectar in a sieve,
And Hope without an object cannot live.
“I was a late bloomer. But anyone who blooms at all, ever, is very lucky.”
“Then while time serves, and we are but decaying.
Come, my Corinna, come, let's go a Maying.”
