Had I a heart for falsehood framed - Sheridan
Had I a Heart for Falsehood Framed, by Richard Brinsley Sheridan
Had I a heart for falsehood framed,
I ne'er could injure you;
For though your tongue no promise claimed,
Your charms would make me true:
To you no soul shall bear deceit,
No stranger offer wrong;
But friends in all the aged you'll meet,
And lovers in the young.
