Azarco, bid me understand

What is it thou dost command--

Must I remain and wait for thee?

Ah, tedious will that waiting be.

To war thou farest, but I fear

Another war awaits thee here.

Thou thinkest in some rural nest

Thou'lt set me to be safe at rest.

Ah, if my absence cause thee pain,

My love attend thee on yon plain.
