Yet each man kills the thing he loves, By each let · Oscar Wilde

It is sweet to dance to violins When Love and Life

Yet each man kills the thing he loves, By each let this be heard, Some do it with a bitter look, Some with a flattering word. The coward does it with a kiss, The brave man with a sword!
