Love

Epigram XIII. On Galla

by Alexander Brome 1620–1666

Translated by Alexander Brome (1664) · From Songs and Other Poems (1664)

Love

Blame not fair Galla that she'ld married be,
(Though she be fair) to one that could not see:
For in that thing in which she took delight,
And which he lov'd, there is no need of sight.
