If I have pleasures for a friend, And farther love in store, What wrong has he whose joys did end, And who can give no more? 'Tis madness that he Should be jealous of me, Or that I should bar him of another: For all that we can gain is to give ourselves pain, When neither can hinder the other. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE APOLLO TRIO by CONRAD AIKEN BAD GIRL SINGING by MARK JARMAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 4 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 5 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 28 by JAMES JOYCE THE SONG OF THE NIGHTINGALE IS LIKE THE SCENT OF SYRINGA by MINA LOY A SONG FOR ST.
