A. E. Housman. 1859–
 
31. With Rue My Heart is Laden
 
WITH rue my heart is laden 
  For golden friends I had, 
For many a rose-lipt maiden 
  And many a lightfoot lad. 
  
By brooks too broad for leaping         5
  The lightfoot boys are laid; 
The rose-lipt girls are sleeping 
  In fields where roses fade.
