First Line: Such the first cry of youth before it learns
Last Line: Dazzles, while love glows steadfast from afar!
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Love; Passion; Youth
Such the first cry of Youth before it learns
That not for love alone was life assign'd,
Till painfully the growing Man discerns
That Youth is to Love's deeper meaning blind,
For passion oft betrays the unguarded mind,
And like the spangle of a lesser star
Dazzles, while Love glows steadfast from afar!
