Love's Wiles

Title:     Love's Wiles
Author: J. C. Manning [More Titles by Manning]

When Beauty smiles upon thee--have a care.
Kingdoms ere this have hinged upon a kiss
From woman's lips: and smiles have won a crown.
Glances from bright eyes of a gentle maid,
Whose cheeks would redden at a mouse's glance,
Have hearts befool'd that in their noble strength
Had shaken Kingdoms down. Have thou a care.

[The end]
J. C. Manning's poem: Love's Wiles
