Epigram: The Candle

Title:     Epigram: The Candle
Author: George Borrow [More Titles by Borrow]

For foolish pastimes oft, full oft, they thee ignite,
I oft a pastime prove for tongues with folly rife;
By wasting of thyself thou yieldest others light,
And I in self same way must use my luckless life.

[The end]
George Borrow's poem: Epigram: The Candle
