Love and Friendship by Emily Bronte Love is like the wild rose-briar‚ Friendship like the holly-tree The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms But which will bloom most constantly? The wild-rose briar is sweet in the spring‚ Its summer blossoms scent the air; Yet wait till winter comes again And who will call the wild-briar fair? Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now And deck thee with the holly’s sheen‚ That when December blights thy brow He may still leave thy garland green. INTRODUCTION
