    The Smile

    There is a Smile of Love 

    And there is a Smile of Deceit 

    And there is a Smile of Smiles

    In which these two Smiles meet 



    And there is a Frown of Hate 

    And there is a Frown of disdain 

    And there is a Frown of Frowns

    Which you strive to forget in vain 



    For it sticks in the Hearts deep Core 

    And it sticks in the deep Back bone 

    And no Smile that ever was smild 

    But only one Smile alone



    That betwixt the Cradle & Grave

    It only once Smild can be 

    But when it once is Smild 

    Theres an end to all Misery
