When I was one-and -twenty I heard a wise man say, Give crowns and pound and guineas But not your heart away; Give pearls away and rubies But keep your fancy free. But I was one-and -twenty, No use to talk to me, When I was one-and-twenty I heard him say again, The heart out of blossom was never given in vain, Tis paid withsighs a plenty and sold for endless rue. and I am two-and-twenty, and oh, tis true,tis true. -A.E Housman
