carga-de-agua:

And thou, a ghost, amid the entombing trees by Edmund Dulac

(French, 1882-1953)

from The Poetical Works of Edgar Allan Poe, 1912.

And thou, a ghost, amid the entombing trees
Didst glide away. Only thine eyes remained;
They would not go – they never yet have gone;
Lighting my lonely pathway home that night,
They have not left me (as my hopes have) since;
They follow me – they lead me through the years.

From Poe’s “To Helen”
