________________________________________________
O Sweetheart, hear you
Your lover's tale;
A man shall have sorrow
When friends him fail.

For he shall know then

But one unto him
Will softly move
And softly woo him
In ways of love.

Her smooth round breast;
So he who has sorrow
Shall have rest.

Read next: 19 - Be not sad because all men - Prefer a lying clamour before you:

Read previous: 17 - Because your voice was at my side - I gave him pain,
