 | Legal & Other Lyrics |  |
[“'Twas not his form, 'twas not his face]
“'Twas not his form, 'twas not his face,
'Twas not his eloquence, that caught her;
It was his name in every case
Thatgained the heart of the macer's daughter.
'Twas not his eloquence, that caught her;
It was his name in every case
Thatgained the heart of the macer's daughter.
17
'Twas not her eye, or ruby lip,
Or teeth, like pearls in purest water;
He'd ne'er have touched her finger's tip
Had she not been the macer's daughter.”
Or teeth, like pearls in purest water;
He'd ne'er have touched her finger's tip
Had she not been the macer's daughter.”
