Text: Edgar Allan Poe, "To ---- [I heed not . . .]" (E), The Works of the Late Edgar Allan Poe, 1850, 2:51




[page 51, continued:]
TO ——.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I HEED not that my earthly lot
    Hath —— little of Earth in it —
That years of love have been forgot
    In the hatred of a minute: —
I mourn not that the desolate
    Are happier, sweet, than I,
But that you sorrow for my fate
    Who am a passer by.








Notes:

None.
