TO JULIA, WEEPING by THOMAS MOORE

First Line: OH! IF YOUR TEARS ARE GIVEN TO CARE
Last Line: THAT I MUST BID YOU DROP THEM STILL!

OH! if your tears are given to care,
If real woe disturbs your peace,
Come to my bosom, weeping fair!
And I will bid your weeping cease.

But if with Fancy's vision'd fears,
With dreams of woe your bosom thrill,
You look so lovely in your tears,
That I must bid you drop them still!
