Time went away, and left him lingering The last romantic in a little town He drowses in the twilight,fingering A scrap of muslin from on antique gown
Old odors find his nostrils when he drowses: Cedar,Amontillado,lavender ; And white facades of stately Georgian houses Grow in the air to make a frame for her
She have been dead for thirty years or more ; And been could she come,eyes glistening, He would not hear her fingers strike the door : He has gone deaf from too much listening
He has gone deaf,and time has gone away The oleander flowers soon will pass His julep stands forgotten on a tray And "pickwick" sprawls forlornly on the grass
Over the garden drifts a scent of musk And in the fringes of the fading light Round hills, like lonely opals in the dusk Deepen to purple, and are one with night 【已有很多网友发表了看法,点击参与讨论】【对英语不懂,点击提问】【英语论坛】【返回首页】
