When Love is kind,
Cheerful and free,
Love's to find
Welcome from me.
But when Love
Heartache or pang,
Tears, and such things—
may go hang!
If Love can sigh
For alone,
Well pleased am I
To be that one,
But should I see
Love given to rove
two or three,
Then—good by Love!
Love must, short,
Keep fond and true,
Thro' good report,
And evil too.
Else, here I swear,
Young may go.
For aught I care—
To Jericho.
