When true hearts lie wither'd And fond ones are flown, Oh, who would inhabit This bleak world alone?
Charles LambI hate the man who eats without knowing what heโs eating. I doubt his taste in more important things.
Charles LambAlas! how light a cause may move Dissension between hearts that love! Hearts that the world in vain had tried, And sorrow but more closely tied; That stood the storm when waves were rough, Yet in a sunny hour fall off, Like ships that have gone down at sea When heaven was all tranquillity.
Charles Lamb
