I am always most religious upon a sunshiny day.
I stood in Venice, on the Bridge of Sighs, A palace and a prison on each hand.
The drying up a single tear has more, of honest fame, than shedding seas of gore.
The devil hath not, in all his quiver's choice, An arrow for the heart like a sweet voice.
Had sigh'd to many, though he loved but one.
Dreading that climax of all human ills the inflammation of his weekly bills.
