All A. E. HOUSMAN Quotes about “Giving”

  • “His folly has not fellow Beneath the blue of day That gives to man or woman His heart and soul away.”

  • “Give me a land of boughs in leaf A land of trees that stand; Where trees are fallen there is grief; I love no leafless land.”

  • “When I was one-and-twenty I heard a wise man say, `Give crowns and pounds 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 the bosom Was never given in vain; 'Tis paid with sighs a plenty And sold for endless rue.' And I am two-and-twenty And oh, 'tis true, 'tis true.”

  • “Give crowns and pounds and guineas But not your heart away; Give pearls away and rubies, But keep your fancy free.”
