  1. A SONG
  2.  
  3. I THOUGHT no more was needed
  4. Youth to polong
  5. Than dumb-bell and foil
  6. To keep the body young.
  7. i{O who could have foretold
  8. That thc heart grows old?}
  9. Though I have many words,
  10. What woman's satisfied,
  11. I am no longer faint
  12. Because at her side?
  13. i{O who could have foretold
  14. That the heart grows old?}
  15. I have not lost desire
  16. But the heart that I had;
  17. I thOught 'twould burn my body
  18. Laid on the death-bed,
  19. i{For who could have foretold
  20. That the heart grows old?}
  21.
