The night comes on that knows not morn,
When I shall cease to be all alone,
To live forgotten, and love forlorn. [ Tennyson ]

Lean abstinence, pale grief, and haggard care,
The dire attendants of forlorn despair. [ Pattison ]

Great God, I had rather be
A Pagan suckled in some creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn. [ Wordsworth ]

Is there a heart that music cannot melt? Alas! how is that rugged heart forlorn. [ Beattie ]

The love of letters is the forlorn hope of the man of letters. His ruling passion is the love of fame. [ Hazlitt ]
