A BREATH, by                
First Line: A breath can fan love's flame to burning
Last Line: The selfsame breath can blow it out.
Alternate Author Name(s): Bridges, Madeline


A BREATH can fan love's flame to burning, --
Make firm resolve of trembling doubt.
But, strange! at fickle fancy's turning,
The selfsame breath can blow it out.
