GO, LOVE, TO THE WORLD. TO NANNIE. Go, love, to the world with your beauty, And seek what you find not m me ; GO, LOVE, TO THE WORLD. $21 They, too, may make loving a duty — I know that you long to be free. Go, love, to another while youthful, Your love-lighted visage will win ; But know he can ne'er be as truthful, As constantly kind as I've been. Give your heart to his fires as a fuel, As fiercely he joins in the strife ; But, darling, remember how cruel You break the dear dream of my life ! ...Go, leave me the world's cold derision, They cannot reprove me too much. And learn that your hopes are a vision, A bubble that bursts with your touch. Go, learn that deceivers are many. The faithful and loving are few ; When a friend you have found not in any. Come back and I still will be true. So when in life's desert you welter. With hopes that are mangled and low, Remember in me there's a shelter, Awaiting your pleasure as now. Now, wandering by Jordan's cold river, I give up the hope I once knew ; How peaceful my days had they never Been crossed by a heart so untrue !
