As tragédias terminam com a morte, (All tragedies are finished by a death,)
E as comédias terminam em casório; (All comedies are ended by a marriage.)
Depois, deixa-se o herói à própria sorte, (The future states of both are lefth to faith,)
Pois teme o autor dizer algo simplório (For authors fear description might disparage)
Sobre o Além-vida, ou sobre os dois consortes, (The worlds to come of both, of fall beneath)
E que o chamem de herege, ou de finório; (And then both worlds would punish their miscarriage)
Deixando a cada um o seu mister, (So leaving each their priest and prayer book ready,)
Nada dizem da morte, ou da mulher. (They say no more of death or of the lady)

Morn came and went — and came, and brought no day.

The stars are forth, the moon above the tops
Of the snow-shining mountains. — Beautiful!
I linger yet with Nature, for the night
Hath been to me a more familiar face
Than that of man; and in her starry shade
Of dim and solitary loveliness,
I learn'd the language of another world.
