The Fickle Heart.

Annie Fellows Johnston

CANST tell me, thou inconstant heart, What like unto thou art? A gypsy wandering up and down Through April's green and Autumn's brown,

Until the year is spent; And then, when hills are white with snow, And brooks, ice-bound, have ceased to flow, No place to pitch his tent.
