And canst thou have forgotten wholly
Alfred Grünfeld
And canst thou have forgotten wholly
How long thy heart was mine, mine solely
That small heart, so sweet, and so false, and so wee
Nought sweet, nought falser could ever be.
Canst thou have forgotten the love and anguish
Wherewith my heart oppressed did languish?
I know not if love was greater than care,
I only know how great both were.
