“To Jeanie” by Mark Twain


 

Good-bye! a kind good-bye,

I bid you now, my friend,

And though 'tis sad to speak the word,

To destiny I bend
 

And though it be decreed by Fate

That we ne'er meet again,

Your image, graven on my heart,

Forever shall remain.
 

Aye, in my heart thoult have a place,

Among the friends held dear,-

Nor shall the hand of Time efface

The memories written there.


 

Goodbye,

S.
