La Rochefoucauld, Réflexions.

MEMORY! thou art but a sigh
For friendships dead and loves forgot,
And many a cold and altered eye
That once did say—Forget me not!
And I must bow me to thy laws,
For—odd although it may be thought—
I can't tell who the deuce it was
That gave me this Forget-me-not!

Bon Gaultier Ballads.

HAT is Truth? "Bring me the wash-hand basin," is the reply of Pontius Pilate.
