19th century Valentine (c1830 to 1850) 3
-
"'Tis my love's own heart, o'er the briny sea,
To mine own, in truth, is flying;
And a plighted troth it brings to me,
Of a faithful heart undying.
Like a bird of promise, round my heart,
I would fainly fond entwine;
For soon we will meet no more to part,
My faithful Valentine."Location; A Collection of Nineteenth Century Valentines. Early and Fine Printing Collection.
