Parting

"If we do meet again, well smile indeed; If not, tis true this parting was well made."

"They say he parted well, and paid his score; And so, God be with him!"

"Such partings break the heart they fondly hope to heal."

"We two parted In silence and tears, Half broken-hearted To sever for years."

"The king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way."

"One kind kiss before we part, Drop a tear, and bid adieu; Though we sever, my fond heart Till we meet shall pant for you."

"My Book and Heart Shall never part."

"In every parting there is an image of death."

"Good-night! good-night! as we so oft have said Beneath this roof at midnight, in the days That are no more, and shall no more return. Thou hast but taken up thy lamp and gone to bed; I stay a little longer, as one stays To cover up the embers that still burn."

"If we must part forever, Give me but one kind word to think upon, And please myself with, while my hearts breaking."

"Shall I bid her goe? what and if I doe? Shall I bid her goe and spare not? Oh no, no, no, I dare not."

"Adieu! tis loves last greeting, The parting hour is come! And fast thy soul is fleeting To seek its starry home."
