There go the loves that wither [dry up], The old loves with wearier wings;

And all dead years draw thither [there] And disastrous things;

Dead dreams of days forsaken, Blind buds that snows have shaken, Wild leaves that winds have taken,

Red strays of ruined springs. ...

And love, grown faint and fretful With lips but half regretful Sighs, and with eyes forgetful Weeps that no loves endure [last].
