Poems and Fragments of Percy Bysshe Shelley by Percy Bysshe Shelley, Thomas Hutchinson

Fragment: ‘I Faint, I Perish with My Love!‘

I faint, I perish with my love! I grow Frail as a cloud whose [splendours] pale Under the evening’s ever-changing glow: I die like mist upon the gale, And like a wave under the calm I fail.
