Song [Nature's Imperfect Child, To Whom]

Title:     Song [Nature's Imperfect Child, To Whom]
Author: Sir John Carr [More Titles by Carr]

Nature's imperfect child, to whom
The world is wrapt in viewless gloom,
Can unresisted still impart
The fondest wishes of his heart.

And he, to whose impervious ear
The sweetest sounds no charms dispense,
Can bid his inmost soul appear
In clear, tho' silent, eloquence.

But we, my Julia, not so blest,
Are doom'd a diff'rent fate to prove,--
To feel each joy and hope supprest
That flow from pure, but hidden, love.

[The end]
Sir John Carr's poem: Song [Nature's Imperfect Child, To Whom]
