Страница 176 - True love's the gift which God has given To man alone beneath the heaven : It is not fantasy's hot fire, Whose wishes, soon as granted, fly; It liveth not in fierce desire, With dead desire it doth not die ; It is the secret sympathy, The silver link, the silken tie, Which heart to heart, and mind to mind, In body and in soul can bind.

Страница 90 - Love not, love not ! The thing you love may change, The rosy lip may cease to smile on you; The kindly-beaming eye grow cold and strange, The heart still warmly beat, yet not be true. Love not, love not ! Oh warning vainly said In present years as in the years gone by; Love flings a halo round the dear one's head, Faultless, immortal — till they change or die.
Страница 53 - Destroy long years of friendship, and estrange us, And on our souls there falls a freezing blight; Not understood. Not understood! How many breasts are aching For lack of sympathy! Ah! day by day How many cheerless, lonely hearts are breaking! How many noble spirits pass away, Not understood.
