Letitia Elizabeth Landon - That day the youth was told...

That day the youth was told the tale,
How she had pined beneath the veil
And died, and then they show'd her grave-
He knew that cypress's green wave. -
That night, alone, he watched his bride -
The next they laid him by her side. (Letitia Elizabeth Landon)

That day the youth was told the tale, How she had pined beneath the veil And died, and then they show'd her grave- He knew that cypress's green wave. - That night, alone, he watched his bride - The next they laid him by her side.

Drugs are a bet with your mind.” "It's like gambling, somehow. You go out for a night of drinking and you don't know where you're going to end up the next day. It could work out good, or it could be disastrous. It's like the throw of the dice.
