LYRICAL INTERLUDE: 44 by HEINRICH HEINE

First Line: FRIENDSHIP, LOVE, PHILOSOPHER'S STONE
Last Line: BUT, ALAS, DISCOVERED THEM NEVER.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP; LOVE;
FRIENDSHIP, love, philosophers' stone, --
These three things men value alone.
I, too, valued and sought them ever,
But, alas, discovered them never.
