Not at home

Title:     Not at home
Author: Samuel Taylor Coleridge [More Titles by Coleridge]

That Jealousy may rule a mind
Where Love could never be
I know; but ne'er expect to find
Love without Jealousy.

She has a strange cast in her ee,
A swart sour-visaged maid--
But yet Love's own twin-sister she,
His house-mate and his shade.

Ask for her and she'll be denied:--
What then? they only mean
Their mistress has lain down to sleep,
And can't just then be seen.

-THE END-
Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem: Not at home
