75
The Time Hath Been.
The time hath been when they have laugh'd
And danced, like them she laugh'd and danced;
That was ere his sweet vows she quaft,
And wore the wreath, her heart entranced.
And danced, like them she laugh'd and danced;
That was ere his sweet vows she quaft,
And wore the wreath, her heart entranced.
Those vows she proved a poison'd draught;
That wreath a poison'd anadem;
And next when danced the rest and laugh'd,
She laugh'd and danced—but not like them.
That wreath a poison'd anadem;
And next when danced the rest and laugh'd,
She laugh'd and danced—but not like them.
