Love at a Stand.

1

Should we but ourselves confine
To one setled habitation,
Though the place were all divine
We should long to change our station.

2

So it was when first I loved.
I resolved not to sever,
But alas it hath so proved.
It was force and, and not Indeavor.

3

Should I say that I adore you
You will hardly give me credit,
You will say if I implore you
In his own words I have read it.

4

That he is unstable, hearken
Love hath bred a deep confusion,
Your denyals often darken
But not change my resolution
