Methinks that thou art sad to-day, my husband. Let me share with thee pain as well as joy; It is the sweetest right that love can claim. We give our joys to strangers, but our grief Sighs itself only forth for those we love. We hang our sorrows on the loved one's ear, Like jewell'd pendents for a bridal feast.
