Is it to love to fix the tender gaze | B |
To hide the timid blush and steal away | C |
To shun the busy world and waste the day | C |
In some rude mountain's solitary maze | B |
Is it to chant one name in ceaseless lays | B |
To hear no words that other tongues can say | C |
To watch the pale moon's melancholy ray | C |
To chide in fondness and in folly praise | B |
Is it to pour th' involuntary sigh | D |
To dream of bliss and wake new pangs to prove | E |
To talk in fancy with the speaking eye | D |
Then start with jealousy and wildly rove | F |
Is it to loathe the light and wish to die | D |
For these I feel and feel that they are Love | G |
