First Line: We dreamed, when we were very young
Last Line: Each heart knows well the taste of rue.
Subject(s): Youth
We dreamed, when we were very young,
Life would be honey to the tongue.
Then we, at sober middle age,
Grew almost reconciled. ... to sage.
Before the long, long day is through
Each heart knows well the taste of rue.
