Item 1842

Penned verse by Heath to Beryla Gorham.

No date

 

 

 

 

 

Obligations

Duty calls for what is due

To square the score,

Leave nothing more to owe or rue, —

All as before.

Love eager is itself to give

From all its store,

To feel delight in others live

And ask no more.

So, Beryla, you must know

From you to me

No obligation e’er can flow

               No debt can be.
