Random Poem of the Day
2 The cloud may stoop from heaven and take the shape,
3 With fold to fold, of mountain or of cape;
4But O too fond, when have I answer'd thee?
5 Ask me no more.
6Ask me no more: what answer should I give?
7 I love not hollow cheek or faded eye:
8 Yet, O my friend, I will not have thee die!
9Ask me no more, lest I should bid thee live;
10 Ask me no more.
11Ask me no more: thy fate and mine are seal'd:
12 I strove against the stream and all in vain:
13 Let the great river take me to the main:
14No more, dear love, for at a touch I yield;
15 Ask me no more.
