Loves Secret

NEVER seek to tell thy love  
Love that never told can be; 
For the gentle wind doth move 
Silently invisibly. 

I told my love I told my love 5 
I told her all my heart  
Trembling cold in ghastly fears. 
Ah! she did depart! 

Soon after she was gone from me  
A traveler came by 10 
Silently invisibly: 
He took her with a sigh.
