(“Comment, disaient-ils.”)
[XXIII., July 18, 1838.]
How shall we flee sorrow–flee sorrow? said he.
How, how! How shall we flee sorrow–flee sorrow? said he.
How–how–how? answered she.
How shall we see pleasure–see pleasure? said he.
How, how! How shall we see pleasure–see pleasure? said he.
Dream–dream–dream! answered she.
How shall we be happy–be happy? said he.
How, how! How shall we be happy–be happy? said he.
Love–love–love! whispered she.
