    Its solitude, and nothing more diverts it
    From its sad visions of the other world
    Than calling it at moments back to this.
    The busy have no time for tears.

She is so constant to me, and so kind.

And the wide world is knit with ties
Of common brotherhood in pain.

I walked a mile with Pleasure,
She chattered all the way;
But left me none the wiser,
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow
And ne'er a word said she;
But, oh, the things I learned from her
When Sorrow walked with me!
