[My foolish rhymes on wedding days]
My foolish rhymes on wedding days
I thought would make you vain,
Or Love would sicken of his lays
And ask them back again.
I thought would make you vain,
Or Love would sicken of his lays
And ask them back again.
“But little prospect now appears
That aught our souls can sever,
Since after Hymen's twenty years
I love you more than ever.
That aught our souls can sever,
Since after Hymen's twenty years
I love you more than ever.
