QUATRAINS: CERTAINTY by CHARLES HANSON TOWNE

First Line: SHE KNEW THAT LOVE WAS DYING-NOT SO MUCH
Last Line: LOVE, DAY BY DAY, ALAS! GREW KIND TO HER!

SHE knew that Love was dying -- not so much
When Love's dear eyes were closed and blind to her,
As when, with patient word and tender touch,
Love, day by day, alas! grew kind to her!
