Signification . . Short Sighted. 
Emblem Musk, Crow-foot. 
Sentiment .... Weakness. 
I greet in song that sweetest one 
Whom I can ne’er forget, 
Though many a day is past and gone 
Since face to face we met. 
Who sings this votive song for me, 
A man or woman, he or she, 
To her, my absent one shall welcome be. 
Kindoms and lands are nought to me, 
When with her presence weighed ; 
And when her face no more I see, 
My power and greatness fade ; 
Then of my wealth I reckon none, 
But sorrow only for mine own ; 
■Rising and falling thus, my life moves on. 
Charles II.
