Song. His Mistress To Him At His Farewell

________________________________________________
Title:     Song. His Mistress To Him At His Farewell
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

You may vow I'll not forget
To pay the debt
Which to thy memory stands as due
As faith can seal it you;
Take then tribute of my tears,
So long as I have fears
To prompt me I shall ever
Languish and look, but thy return see never.
Oh then to lessen my despair
Print thy lips into the air,
So by this
Means I may kiss thy kiss
Whenas some kind
Wind
Shall hither waft it, and in lieu
My lips shall send a 1000 back to you.





[The end]
