MY dear and only Love I pray | B |
That little world of thee | C |
Be govern'd by no other sway | B |
Than purest monarchy | C |
For if confusion have a part | D |
Which virtuous souls abhor | E |
And hold a synod in thine heart | D |
I'll never love thee more | E |
- | |
Like Alexander I will reign | F |
And I will reign alone | G |
My thoughts did evermore disdain | F |
A rival on my throne | G |
He either fears his fate too much | H |
Or his deserts are small | I |
That dares not put it to the touch | H |
To gain or lose it all | I |
- | |
And in the empire of thine heart | D |
Where I should solely be | C |
If others do pretend a part | D |
Or dare to vie with me | C |
Or if Committees thou erect | J |
And go on such a score | E |
I'll laugh and sing at thy neglect | J |
And never love thee more | E |
- | |
But if thou wilt prove faithful then | K |
And constant of thy word | L |
I'll make thee glorious by my pen | K |
And famous by my sword | M |
I'll serve thee in such noble ways | N |
Was never heard before | E |
I'll crown and deck thee all with bays | N |
And love thee more and more | E |
