seen As others saw; I could not bring My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken My sorrow; I could not awaken My
heart to joy at the same tone; And all I loved, I loved alone. Then- in my

of ground That looked like Eldorado. And, as his strength Failed him at
length, He met a pilgrim shadow? "Shadow," said he, "Where can it be? This
land of Eldorado?" "Over the mountains Of the moon, Down the valley of the
shadow, Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied,? "If you seek for
Eldorado!"" | |
