II
“Thy love is over simple
To woo one on the leas;
One's kirtle torn; in wimple
Unbusked; tanned by the breeze.”
—“Thou needest but that dimple—
On thy knees, Love, on thy knees!
To woo one on the leas;
One's kirtle torn; in wimple
Unbusked; tanned by the breeze.”
—“Thou needest but that dimple—
On thy knees, Love, on thy knees!
64
“What's wiser than thine eyes, my lass?
Thy heart?—Beneath God's skies, my lass,
Love! wiser than the wise, my lass—
We blind! 't is Love who sees.
Thy heart?—Beneath God's skies, my lass,
Love! wiser than the wise, my lass—
We blind! 't is Love who sees.
