QUATRAINS: THE FRIENDS by CHARLES HANSON TOWNE

First Line: SHARE NOT THY JOY WITH ME, O FRIEND THE BEST
Last Line: AND MINE OWN GRIEF WOULD BE TOO GREAT TO BEAR.
Subject(s): GRIEF; SORROW; SADNESS;
SHARE not thy joy with me, O friend the best,
Thou may'st forget me then -- I shall not care;
But shut me from thy grief the bitterest,
And mine own grief would be too great to bear.
