A man cannot forget a woman’s eyes,

If he has kissed them (as I have thine own

In dreams). Love is an art

Which men do not forget, when they have known

The way a woman takes toward paradise.

What weary fools we are! Dust is the same,

Whether alive, or whether dead and rotten;

And love is love, remembered or forgotten;

And life is life, although it be a name.

Let sorrow come, with many tears; or shame
