He loves me—much beyond a common friend.

My window oft he passes day and night;

I cannot move a step, but he's in sight,

And in a moment at my heels appears;

Notes, letters full of soft expressions, dears,

To me are sent by one I will not name,

For known to you, she would be thought to blame:

Pray put an end to such a wild pursuit

It nothing can produce but wretched fruit;

My husband may take fire at things like these;
