PONT-AVEN, FINISTÈRE, 1896.

Ernest Christopher Dowson

They are not long, the weeping and the laughter. Love and desire and hate: I think they have no portion in us after We pass the gate.

They are not long, the days of wine and roses: Out of a misty dream Our path emerges for a while, then closes Within a dream.
