Additional quotes by Thomas Moore

The light that lies
In woman's eyes,
Has been my heart's undoing.

Oh, ever thus, from childhood's hour,
I 've seen my fondest hopes decay;
I never loved a tree or flower
But 't was the first to fade away.
I never nurs'd a dear gazelle,
To glad me with its soft black eye,
But when it came to know me well
And love me, it was sure to die.

Faintly as tolls the evening chime,
Our voices keep tune and our oars keep time.

And when once the young heart of a maiden is stolen, The maiden herself will steal after it soon. - Thomas Moore
