Yet, if they were not thrown at me,

I could not cast one thought at thee.

I'd rather marry a disease

Than court the thing I cannot please;

She that will cherish my desires,

Must feed my flames with equal fires.

What pleasure is there in a kiss,

To him that doubts the heart's not his?

I love thee, not 'cause thou art fair,

Smoother than down, softer than air,
