The Sting of Memory.

If I had only thought when last we met In life we two might never meet again, [ would not now be suffering regret That fills my heart and soul with bitter pain; * For I had paused ere I had given voice To cruel words that ctu you to the heart, And with the gladsome thought would uow rejoice: ? —— —— In friendship not in anger did we part*. —Henry Waldorf Francis, in Success.
