Other youths will come and tell
How their hearts with passion burn
And from him who loves thee well
To their flatteries falsehood thou will bring
They will flatter faun – deceive – pretend; –
They will cheat thy gentle youth; –
Careless how their falsehood lies may end
Or in honesty or truth

Falsehood has a talisman
Full of treachery, full of lies
And its cheating splendour can
Lull the heart & blind the eyes
Like the many colored ray
Of the rainbow – so its shines is its light
As delusive as 'tis gay
And as pleasing as 'tis bright.

Tales for youth joy & sorrow both
Words which we are youth is pleased to hear
It can swear the holiest oath
It can charm the sagest ear
