If say I must—nay must I say;
I cannot stay;
Nay, nay, I needs must flout thee!”

He turned about;
His life went out;
“If go I must, so must I go!”
Cried she—“No, no;
Ah, what were life without thee!”
His life went out;
“If go I must, so must I go!”
Cried she—“No, no;
Ah, what were life without thee!”
