Random Poem of the Day
2But not for a lip nor a languishing eye:
3She's fickle and false, and there I agree;
4For I am as false and as fickle as she:
5We neither believe what either can say;
6And, neither believing, we neither betray.
7'Tis civil to swear and say things, of course;
8We mean not the taking for better or worse.
9When present we love, when absent agree;
10I think not of Iris, nor Iris of me:
11The legend of love no couple can find
12So easy to part, or so equally join'd.
