Please Help Will Mark Brainliest Read these stanzas from the poem "Ballad" by Paul Laurence Dunbar. I know my love is true,

And oh the day is fair.

The sky is dear and blue,

The flowers are rich in hue,

The air I breathe is rare,

I have no grief or care;

For my love is true,

And oh the day is fair.

My love is false I find,

And oh the day is dark.

Blows sadly down the wind,

While sorrow holds my mind;

I do not hear the lark,

For quenched is life's dear spark,—

My love is false I find,

And oh the day is dark!
