False Love And True Logic
Samuel Laman Blanchard 1804 – 1845
THE DISCONSOLATE
My heart will break, I'm sure it will:
My lover, yes, my favorite, he
Who seemed my own through good and ill,
Has basely turned his back on me.
THE COMFORTER
Ah! silly sorrower, weep no more;
Your lover's turned his back, we see;
But you had turned his head before,
And now he's as he ought to be.
