Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Love-Letters of a Violinist
Laid out in state, I dare not, for the fear Of this dead thing, regard it as a toy. It was a splendid Hope without alloy, And now, behold! I greet it with a tear. It is my pastime, and my penance, too, My pride, my comfort, and my discon tent, To count my sorrows ere the day is spent, And dream, at night, of love within the blue Of thy sweet eyes, and tremble through and through, And keep my house, as one that doth lament.
