Explore "Stanzas: Could Love for Ever" by Lord Byron on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Could Love for ever / Run like a river, / And Time's endeavour / Be tried in vain- / No other pleasure / With this could measure, / And like a treasure, / We'd hug the chain.
But since our sighing / Ends not in dying, / And, form'd for flying, / Love plumes his wing, / Then for this reason / Let's love a season, / But let that season be only Spring.
