How shall we see pleasure--see
pleasure?
Victor Hugo - Poems
WILLIAMS.
GUITAR SONG.
_("Comment, disaient-ils. ")_
[XXIII. , July 18, 1838. ]
How shall we flee sorrow--flee sorrow? said he.
How, how! How shall we flee sorrow--flee sorrow? said he.
How--how--how? answered she.
How shall we see pleasure--see pleasure? said he.
How, how!
How shall we see pleasure--see pleasure? said he.
Dream--dream--dream! answered she.
How shall we be happy--be happy? said he.
How, how! How shall we be happy--be happy? said he.
Love--love--love! whispered she.

COME WHEN I SLEEP.
_("Oh, quand je dors. ")_
[XXVII. ]
Oh! when I sleep, come near my resting-place,
As Laura came to bless her poet's heart,
And let thy breath in passing touch my face--
At once a space
My lips will part.
