1. ۱ I dwelt alone
2. ۲ In a world of moan,
3. ۳ And my soul was a stagnant tide,
4. ۴Till the fair and gentle Eulalie became my blushing bride--
5. ۵Till the yellow-haired young Eulalie became my smiling bride.
6. ۶ Ah, less--less bright
7. ۷ The stars of the night
8. ۸ Than the eyes of the radiant girl!
9. ۹ And never a flake
10. ۱۰ That the vapor can make
11. ۱۱ With the moon-tints of purple and pearl,
12. ۱۲Can vie with the modest Eulalie's most unregarded curl--
13. ۱۳Can compare with the bright-eyed Eulalie's most humble and careless
14. ۱۴ curl.
15. ۱۵ Now Doubt--now Pain
16. ۱۶ Come never again,
17. ۱۷ For her soul gives me sigh for sigh,
18. ۱۸ And all day long
19. ۱۹ Shines, bright and strong,
20. ۲۰ Astarté within the sky,
21. ۲۱While ever to her dear Eulalie upturns her matron eye--
22. ۲۲While ever to her young Eulalie upturns her violet eye.
