A REMONSTRANCE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: SING ME NO MORE, SWEET WARBLER, FOR THE DART
Last Line: TOGETHER WITH THE SILENCE BREAKS MY HEART.
Subject(s): BIRDS; SINGING & SINGERS;
Sing me no more, sweet warbler, for the dart
Of joy is keener than the flash of pain;
Sing me no more, for the re-echoed strain
Together with the silence breaks my heart.
