To A Proud Beauty - A Valentine
Though I have loved you well, I ween, And you, too, fancied me, Your heart hath too divided been A constant heart to be. And like the gay and youthful knight, Who loved and rode away, Your fleeting fancy takes a flight With every fleeting day. So let it be as you propose, Tho hard the struggle be; Tis fitter far, that goodness knows! Since we cannot agree. Lets quarrel once for all, my sweet, Forget the past, and then Ill kiss each pretty girl I meet, While youll flirt with the men.
