I only know we loved in vain; / I only feel—farewell! farewell!
Farewell! if ever fondest Prayer.
Lord Byron
George Gordon Noel Byron, Lord Byron
 
1788–1824, English poet and satirist.… Byron’s poetry covers a wide range. In English Bards and Scotch Reviewers and in The Vision of Judgment (1822) he wrote 18th-century satire. He also created the “Byronic hero,” who appears consummately in the Faustian tragedy Manfred (1817)—a mysterious, lonely, defiant figure whose past hides some great crime.—continue at Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition.
