Hope is but the dream of those who wake.
Similes are like songs of love: They much describe they nothing prove.
They never taste who always drink They always talk who never think.
He's half absolv'd Who has confess'd.
Hope is but the dream of those that wake.
And hope is but a dream of those that wake.
