Gazelle
 
Oh! ever thus, from childhood’s hour,
  I’ve seen my fondest hopes decay;
I never loved a tree or flower,
  But ’twas the first to fade away.
I never nursed a dear gazelle,
  To glad me with its soft black eye,
But when it came to know me well,
  And love me, it was sure to die.
        Tom Moore.—Fire Worshippers, Vol. VI. 217.		  1
