What ails thee,my silly heart?
What balm for your ache,at last?
I adore him, he repels,
What,s the matter, O my Lord?
I too have a tongue, I too can speak,
Would that you ask, what I crave!
When none apart from you exists,
Why this struggle and alarm, O God?
What sort are these fairy-faced folk?
What these glance, graces,airs?
Why fragrant locks,coil and coil?
And what this antimonial glance?
Whence have sprung the verdure and bloom?
What is a cloud, what the breeze?
I expect fidelity from him,
Who knows not what fidelity means.
