THE CONSTANT LOVER.
(In the manner of Sir J. Suckling.)
'Tis mighty strange—three weeks are past,
And still I constant prove;
Will this fierce flame for ever last?
This miracle of love?
And still I constant prove;
Will this fierce flame for ever last?
This miracle of love?
Shall I still sigh at Chloe's feet,
Nor wish my heart to free?
No doubt—until I chance to meet
A prettier girl than she.
Nor wish my heart to free?
No doubt—until I chance to meet
A prettier girl than she.
