I want it watch'd by other eye,
That face—so bright to me!
And sigh—" If mother now were by!"
"If Lizzie could but see!"
That face—so bright to me!
And sigh—" If mother now were by!"
"If Lizzie could but see!"
Oh! my English home is cold, mother,
And dark and lonely too!
never shall be happy here,—
I pine to go to you!
And dark and lonely too!
never shall be happy here,—
I pine to go to you!
I will not call it "home," mother,
From those I love so far!—
That only can be home to me,
Where you and Lizzie are.
From those I love so far!—
That only can be home to me,
Where you and Lizzie are.
LEONOR.
Leonor loved a noble youth,
But light was Leonor's maiden truth;
She left her love for wealth forsooth.
Faithless Leonor!
But light was Leonor's maiden truth;
She left her love for wealth forsooth.
Faithless Leonor!
