PITY DON JUAN by EDWARD RALPH CHEYNEY

First Line: HE GATHERS LOVE AFFAIRS AS BOYS DO STAMPS
Last Line: HE CANNOT DROWN HIMSELF IN ANY EYE.
Subject(s): DON JUAN; LOVE AFFAIRS; SEX;

He gathers love affairs as boys do stamps;
He wears a girl as though she were a tie;
And only victory his ardor damps.
He cannot drown himself in any eye.
