LOVE HAS EYES.

Love's blind, they say,
O never, nay;
Can words Love's grace impart?
The fancy, weak,
The tongue may speak,
But eyes alone the heart.
In one soft look what language lies!
O yes, believe me, Love has eyes.

Love's wing'd, they cry—
O, never, I-
On pinions love to soar;
Deceivers rove,
But never love,
Attach'd he moves no more:
Can he have wings who never flies?
And yes, believe me, Love has eyes.

FINIS.
