A VALENTINE At last, dear love, the day is gone, The doors are barred--the lamps are lit, The couch beside the fire is drawn, The nook whore thou wert wont to sit; The book is open at the place, And half its leaves are still uncut, And yet without thy listening face, I cannot read, the book I shut, And muse, and dream:--it is the day When lovers, silent all the year, Find tongues in floral tokens gay, To whisper all they long to hear.
