Dear Friends - ZaunköniG - 10.06.2007 Dear Friends Dear friends, reproach me not for what I do, Nor consuel me, nor pity me; nor say That I am wearing half my life away For bubble-work that only fools pursue. And if my bubbles be too small for you, low bigger then your own: the games we play To fill the frittered minutes of a day, Good glasses are to read the spirit through. And whoso reads may get him some shrewd skill; And some improfitable scorn resign, To praise the very thing that he deplores. So, friends (dear Friends, remember, if you will, The shame I win for singing is all mine, The gold I miss for dreaming is all yours. |
