There is a Smile of Love. And there is a Smile of Deceit, And there is a Smile of Smiles In which these two Smiles meet. And there is a Frown of Hate, And there is a Frown of Disdain, And there is a Frown of Frowns Which you strive to forget in vain, For it sticks in the Heart's deep Core And it sticks in the deep Back bone; And no Smile that ever was smil'd, But only one Smile alone, That betwixt the Cradle and Grave It only once Smil'd can be; But, when it once is Smil'd, There's an end to all Misery. |
