My only books were woman's looks, and folly's all they've taught me.
My only books were woman's looks, and folly's all they've taught me.
Who is the wise Not he who from the startWith Wisdom's followers has taken partBut he who looks in Folly's tempting eyes,And turns away, perceiving her disguise.
And thus decreed the court above--
"Since Love is blind from Folly's blow,
Let Folly be the guide of Love,
Where'er the boy may choose to go.
