998. SINGING A DUET.
Godfried Schalcken (Dutch: 1643-1706). See 199.
A lover holds a guitar, his mistress some music; on the table is a rose—
If love were what the rose is,
And I were like the leaf,
Our lives would grow together
In sad or singing weather....
If love were what the rose is
And I were like the leaf.
Swinburne: A Match.
