Every 10th word

O to part now, and, parting now,
     Never meet again;
To have done for ever, I and thou,
     With joy, and so with pain.

It is hard, too hard to meet
     As friends, and no more;
Those other meetings were too sweet
      went before.

And I would have, now love is over,
     An end to all, an end:
I cannot, been your lover,
     Stoop to become your friend!
