3 quotes

And I would have, now love is over,
An end to all, an end:
I cannot, having been your lover,
Stoop to become your friend!

I have laid sorrow to sleep;
Love sleeps.
She who oft made me weep
Now weeps.

I have loved colours, and not flowers;
Their motion, not the swallows wings;
And wasted more than half my hours
Without the comradeship of things.
