Explore "To a Vain Lady" by Lord Byron on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Ah! heedless girl! why thus disclose / What ne'er was meant for other ears: / Why thus destroy thine own repose / And dig the source of future tears?
Oh, thou wilt weep, imprudent maid, / While lurking envious foes will smile, / For all the follies thou hast said / Of those who spoke but to beguile.
