POEM, by HENRY HUGHES First Line: I prethee send me back my heart Last Line: If thus our hearts thou sever? | |||
I prethee send me back my heart, Since I cannot have thine: For if from yours you will not part, Why then should you keep mine? Yet now I think 'n't, let it lie, To send it me were vain, For th'hast a thief in either eye Will steal it back again. Why should two hearts in one breast lie, And yet not lodge together? Oh Love, where is thy sympathie If thus our hearts thou sever? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SUMMER DAYS by WATHEN MARK WILKS CALL AND WHAT SHALL YOU SAY? by JOSEPH SEAMON COTTER JR.
