No doubt, he fell in love for her.
No doubt, he has found her worthwhile.
Does he really feel such love
For her at the very moment
‘As she believes to be feeling
And as she hopes to feel for the rest
Of her life towards him? ' Doubtful;
I pity for my little sister.
I was determined not to occupy
His attention to the exclusiveness
Of my sister, whose lover he had been.
The reason of his attentiveness to me
Must be in his casual attempts to win
The good opinion of her relations,
Which might influence her view of him.
I went wrong. He wanted me and not her.
No doubt, he found her attractive.
No doubt, he found me more than her.
It was his fate he saw me later
When he paid a visit to our house.
I wished I had not been back home.
A treachery I could not make.
Maybe he was true to his love.
I stood for the sake of my sister.
