Title:     Stanzas From The Portuguese
Author: George Borrow [More Titles by Borrow]

A fool is he who in the lap
Basking of every smiling joy,
Will each and all with fear alloy
Of what some future day may hap.

Let him enjoy his present state;
For he but double make his woes,
Who midst the future's shadows goes
To meet the ills of murky fate.

[The end]
George Borrow's poem: Stanzas From The Portuguese
