THE DISCARDED LOVER by AMELIA WOODWARD TRUESDELL

First Line: O LOVE IS ILLUSION AND PASSION A SNARE
Last Line: IF YOU WOULD HAVE PEACE, WITH THEM YOU MUST PART.
Subject(s): HEARTS; LOVE - COMPLAINTS; PASSION;

O love is illusion and passion a snare;
Of the promise they make you, beware, beware;
They'll put up a job to break your heart;
If you would have peace, with them you must part.
