Mary Barber
1690-1757 / England
On Imagining A Friend Had Treated The Author With Indifference.
LIKE THIS POEM
Go, Jealousy, Tormentress dire;
On Lovers only seize:
In Love, like Winds, you fan the Fire,
And make it higher blaze.
But Friendship's calmer, purer Joy
Thou dost not heighten, but destroy.
