Partners

 Love took chambers on our street
 Opposite to mine;
On his door he tacked a neat,
 Clearly lettered sign.


Straightway grew his custom great,
 For his sign read so:
“Hearts united while you wait.

 Step in.
 Love and Co.
”

Much I wondered who was “Co.
”
 In Love’s partnership;
Thought across the street I’d go—
 Learn from Love’s own lip.


So I went; and since that day
 Life is hard for me.

I was buncoed! (By the way,
 “Co.
” is Jealousy.
)
