Song

When my love did what I would not, what I would not,
I could hear his merry voice upon the wind.
Crying, " Fairest, shut your eyes, for see you should not.
Love is blind!"

When my love said what I say not, what I say not,
With a joyous laugh he quieted my fears,
Whispering, " Fairest, hearken not, for hear you may not.
Hath Love ears?"

When my love said, " Will you longer let me seek it?
Blind and deaf is she that doth not bid me come!"
All my heart said murmuring, " Dearest, can I speak it?
Love is dumb!
