    the respect born of affection withered,
    good feelings fled,
    and that man walked before me
    like any other,
    Good Friend,
    I imagine all this,
    think on days gone by
    and wonder why
    my heart hasn’t cracked
    into a hundred bits.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
