TOWARDS DEMOCRACY: PART 2. OF THE LOVE THAT YOU POURED FORTH by EDWARD CARPENTER

First Line: OF THE LOVE THAT YOU POURED FORTH, DEAR FRIEND
Last Line: NOT THINK SO.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP; HEARTS; LOVE; RELATIONSHIPS;
OF the love that you poured forth, dear friend, in vain—like a cup of
water in the wide and thirsty desert—but it was all your life to you,
Do you dream that it is lost?
Perhaps it is—it may well seem so just now to you—yet indeed I do
not think so.
