- | |
Oh yes they love through all this world of ours | B |
I will not gainsay love called love forsooth | C |
I have heard love talked in my early youth | C |
And since not so long back but that the flowers | B |
Then gathered smell still Mussulmans and Giaours | B |
Throw kerchiefs at a smile and have no ruth | C |
For any weeping Polypheme's white tooth | C |
Slips on the nut if after frequent showers | B |
The shell is over smooth and not so much | D |
Will turn the thing called love aside to hate | E |
Or else to oblivion But thou art not such | D |
A lover my Beloved thou canst wait | E |
Through sorrow and sickness to bring souls to touch | D |
And think it soon when others cry 'Too late ' | - |
