Greater is the depth of sadness

Greater is the depth of sadness
Than is any height of gladness.

I am bound, I am bound, for a distant shore
Tell me ye wise ones if ye can
I'm not alone
I was born upon thy bank, river
Old meeting-house bell
The Deeds of king and meanest hedger
The Funeral Bell
Far oer The bow
I saw a delicate flower had grown up two feet high
Each summer sound

For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
