** NEVER GIVE ALL THE HEART **
Never give all the heart, for love, Will hardly seem worth thinking of, To passionate woman if it seem, Certain, and they never dream, That it fades out from kiss to kiss, For everything thats lovely is, But a brief, dreamy, kind delight. O never give the heart outright, For they, for all smoth lips can say, Have given their hearts up to the play, And who could play it well enough, If deaf and dumb and blind with love ? He that made this knows all the cost, For he gave all his heart and lost.
