Quote #3

When age chills the blood, when our pleasures are past- For years fleet away with the wings of the dove- The dearest remembrance will still be the last, Our sweetest memorial the first kiss of love.

More from Lord Byron

  1. Farewell! if ever fondest prayer For other's weal avail'd on high, Mine will not all be lost in air, But waft thy name beyond the sky.
  2. I only know we loved in vain; I only feel-farewell! farewell!
  3. When we two parted In silence and tears, Half brokenhearted, To sever for years.
  4. In secret we met In silence I grieve, That thy heart could forget, Thy spirit deceive. If I should meet thee After long years, How should I…
  5. Near this spot Are deposited the Remains of one Who possessed Beauty without Vanity, Strength without Insolence, Courage without Ferocity, …
  6. The poor dog, in life the firmest friend, The first to welcome, foremost to defend.
  7. Maid of Athens, ere we part, Give, oh give me back my heart!
  8. The love where Death has set his seal, Nor age can chill, nor rival steal, Nor falsehood disavow.
