When lovely woman stoops to folly, 5 And finds too · Oliver Goldsmith

The man recover’d of the bite, The dog it was that

When lovely woman stoops to folly, 5 And finds too late that men betray, What charm can soothe her melancholy? What art can wash her guilt away?

Betrayal and Disappointment Sadness and Melancholy
