Pass. there's world full of men;
And women as fair as thou art
Must do such things now and then.
Thou only hast stepp'd unaware,
Malice not one can impute);
And why should a heart have been there
In the way of a fair woman's foot?
It>was not stone that could trip
Nor was it a thorn that could rend;
Put up thy proud under-lip!
Twas merely the heart of a friend.
And yet peradventure, one day
Thou, sitting alone at the glass,
Remarking the bloom gone away,
Where the smile in its dimplment was,
And seeking around thee in vain,
From hundred who flatter'd before,
Such word as 30, not in the main
Do I behold thee less precious, but
more"
Thou wilt sigh very like, on thy part
'Of all have known or can know,
| wish l had only that Heart
trod upon ages ago."
