Here's to the Love that lies in Woman's eyes
And lies -- and lies -- and lies!

Here's to the girl I love,
And here's to the girl that loves me,
And here's to all those that love her that I love,
And to those that love here that love me.
-
Alas! the love of woman! it is known
To be a lovely and fearful thing.
[Lord Byron, from Don Juan; attrib. by 1910 Lowe]

Here's to the girls of the American shore
I love but one, I love no more;
Since she's not here to drink her part,
I'll drink her share with all my heart.
-
I love her, and I love her yet,
But what you want ain't what you get.
[1926, Morley]
