How sweet a dream your memories rai!
III
Passion''s wild sway I then allowed,
Her promptings unto law did make,
Pursuits I followed of the crowd,
My sportive Mu I ud to take
To many a noisy feast and fight,
Terror of guardians of the night;
And wild festivities among
She brought with her the gift of song.
Like a Bate in her sport
Beside the bsp;she sang her rhymes
And the young revellers of past times
Vociferously paid her court,
And I, amid the friendly crowd,
Of my light paramour was proud.

But I abandoned their array,
And fled afar-she followed me.
How oft the kindly Mu away
Hath whiled the road''s monotony,
Entranbsp;me by some mystibsp;tale.
How oft beh the moonbeams pale
Like Leonora did she ride
With me Caucasian robsp;beside!
How oft to the Crimean shore
She led me through noal mist
Unto the sounding a to list,
Where Nereids murmur evermore,
And where the billows hoarly rai
To God eternal hymns of prai.
V
Then, the far capital fot,
Its splendour and its blandishments,
In poor Moldavia cast her lot,
How sweet a dream your memories rai!
