THE LADYA
-
IN the small and great world tooB
-
What most charms a woman's heartC
It is doubtless what is newB
-
For its blossoms joy impartC
Nobler far is what is trueB
-
For fresh blossoms it can shootD
-
Even in the time of fruitD
-
THE YOUNG GENTLEMANE
-
With the Nymphs in wood and caveF
-
Paris was acquainted wellG
Till Zeus sent to make him raveF
-
Three of those in Heav'n who dwellG
And the choice more trouble gaveF
-
Than e'er fell to mortal lotH
-
Whether in old times or notH
-
THE EXPERIENCEDI
-
Tenderly a woman viewB
-
And thoult win her take my wordJ
He who's quick and saucy tooB
-
Will of all men be preferr'dJ
Who ne'er seems as if he knewB
-
If he pleases if he charmsK
-
He 'tis injures he 'tis harmsK
-
THE CONTENTEDL
-
Manifold is human strifeM
-
Human passion human painN
Many a blessing yet is rifeM
-
Many pleasures still remainN
Yet the greatest bliss in lifeM
-
And the richest prize we findO
-
Is a good contented mindO
-
THE MERRY COUNSELP
-
He by whom man's foolish willQ
-
Is each day review'd and blamedR
Who when others fools are stillQ
-
Is himself a fool proclaim'dR
Ne'er at mill was beast's back press'dS
-
With a heavier load than heA
What I feel within my breastS
-
That in truth's the thing for meA

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
