A poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Different Threats

________________________________________________
Title:     Different Threats
Author: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe [More Titles by Goethe]

I ONCE into a forest far

My maiden went to seek,
And fell upon her neck, when: "Ah!"

She threaten'd, "I will shriek!"

Then cried I haughtily: "I'll crush

The man that dares come near thee!"
"Hush!" whisper'd she: "My loved one, hush!

Or else they'll overhear thee!"


1767-9.
