“When I was young, I said to Sorrow,
"Come and I will play with thee!"”
He is near me now all day,
And at night returns to say,
"I will come again to-morrow—
I will come and stay with thee."
Song, When I was Young I said to Sorrow; reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 736.
