A LA CHABOT by ANONYMOUS

First Line: OBJECT ADORABLE OF CHARMS
Last Line: "TO LOVE, AND NOT TO DARE TO TELL"

OBJECT adorable of charms,
My sighs and tears may testify my harms,
But my respect forbids me to reveal.
Ah what a pain'tis to conceal,
And how I suffer worse than hell,
To love, and not to dare to tell!
