Better To Love Amiss Than Nothing To

Better To Love Amiss Than Nothing To Have Loved.

To Show The World What Long Experience Gains, Requires Not Courage, Though It Calls For Pains; But At Life's Outset To Inform Mankind Is A Bold Effort Of A Valiant Mind.

With Eye Upraised His Master's Look To Scan, The Joy, The Solace, And The Aid Of Man: The Rich Man's Guardian And The Poor Man's Friend, The Only Creature Faithful To The End.

Virtues Neglected Then, Adored Become, And Graces Slighted, Blossom On The Tomb.

An Infatuated Man Is Not Only Foolish, But Wild.
