Ingratitude/Source

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


    Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
    Thou are not so unkind
      As man's ingratitude;
    Thy tooth is not so keen
    Because thou are not seen,
      Although thy breath be rude.

    Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
    Thou dost not bite so nigh
      As benefits forgot;
    Though thou the waters warp,
    Thy sting is not so sharp
      As friend remembered not.
