No, the heart that has truly lov'd never forgets,
But as truly loves on to the close;
As the sunflower turns on her god when he sets
The same look which she turn'd when he rose.

As love's young dream.

Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed (1919)

And the heart that is soonest awake to the flowers
Is always the first to be touch'd by the thorns.

Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed (1919)

Just as the mind the erring sense believes,
The erring mind, in turn, the sense deceives.

Go where glory waits thee,
But while fame elates thee,
Oh! still remember me!
