Seite 27 - ALAS ! they had been friends in youth : But whispering tongues can poison truth ; And constancy lives in realms above ; And life is thorny ; and youth is vain ; And to be wroth with one we love Doth work like madness on the brain.

Seite 39 - twas in a crowd, And I thought he would shun me, He came — I could not breathe, For his eyes were upon me ; He spoke — his words were cold, And his smile was unaltered ; I knew how much he felt, For his deep-toned voice falter'd.
