A poem by Thomas Gent

Oh! Never Will I Leave My Love

________________________________________________
Title:     Oh! Never Will I Leave My Love
Author: Thomas Gent [More Titles by Gent]

Oh! never will I leave my love,
My captive soul would sigh to stray,
Tho' seraph-songs its truth to prove,
Call it from earth to heaven to away.

For heaven has deign'd on earth to send
As rich a gift as it can give;
Alas! that mortal bliss must end,
For mortal man must cease to live.

Yet transient would my sorrows be
Should Delia first her breath resign;
Sweet Maid! my soul would follow thee,
For never can it part from thine.





[The end]
Thomas Gent's poem: Oh! Never Will I Leave My Love
