Pain'd by the past, expecting ills to come,
In some dread moment. by the fates assign'd,

Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.

In time there is no present,
In eternity no future,
In eternity no past.

In time there is no present,
In eternity no future,
In eternity no past.
