As if a Phantom Caress’d Me + 

As if a phantom caress’d me, + 

I thought I was not alone walking here by the shore; + 

But the one I thought was with me as now I walk by the shore, the one I loved that caress’d me, + 

As I lean and look through the glimmering light, that one has utterly disappear’d, + 

And those appear that are hateful to me and mock me. + 
