Don Juan 04-010
Canto the Fourth

 X

They were alone once more; for them to be
 Thus was another Eden; they were never
Weary, unless when separate: the tree
 Cut from its forest root of years -- the river
Damm'd from its fountain -- the child from the knee
 And breast maternal wean'd at once for ever, --
Would wither less than these two torn apart;
Alas! there is no instinct like the heart --

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)
