Good-bye My Fancy

Good-bye my Fancy!
    Farewell dear mate,dear love!
    I'm going away,I know not where,
    Or to what fortune, or whether I may ever see you again,
    So Good-bye my Fancy.
    Now for my last-let me look back a moment;
    The slower fainter ticking of the clock is in me,
    Exit, nightfall,and soon the heart-thud stopping.
    Long have we lived, joy'd,caress'd together;
    Delightful!-now separation-Good-bye my Fancy.
    Yet let me not be too hasty,
    Long indeed have we lived, slept, filter'd, become really
    blended into one;
    Then if we die we die together, (yes,we'll remain one,)
    If we go anywhere we'll be better off and blither, and learn something,
    May-be it is yourself now really ushering me
    to the true songs, (who knows?)
    May-be it is you the mortal knob really undoing,turning
    -so now finally,
    Good-bye-and hail! my Fancy.
