Where the grapes grew red.

Oh, so sweet the birds, when he was dying,

Piped to her and me—

Is no room this glad June day for sighing—

He is dead, and she and I go free!

When the sun shall set on all our pleasure

We will mourn him—What, so you decree

We are heartless?—Nay, but in what measure

Do you more than we?
