Cara, vale! ingenio praestans, pietate, pudore,
Et plus quam natae nomine cara, vale!
Cara Maria, vale! At veniet felicius aevum,
Quando iterum tecum, sim modo dignus, ero.
Cara, redi, laeta tum dicam voce, paternos
Eia! age in amplexus, cara Maria, redi.

From 1834 New England Magazine
Dear one, farewell! with genius blessed,
With grace and piety,
But dearer by a daughter's name,
Alas ! farewell to thee
Farewell, Maria dear! a happier time
Will surely be,
When I again, if worthy found,
Shall meet with thee.
Dear one, return ! with joyful voice
My words will be,
Come to thy father's arms, Maria dear,
Return again to me.
