1. Not all who pass the nights from love distraught,
In tears and anguish and consuming flame,

2. Are like to him whose heart’s desire has brought
More fiercely glowing firebrands of shame:

3. Who parted from his folk in manner haught
And doffed the robe of prudence in disdain,

4. Who left alike both friends and strangers, naught
Recking if those he loved should work him pain.
