COME, sit awhile beneath this spreading arbor Of lusty fig and intercreeping vine ; My heart no other guest save love shall harbor While thou art mine — Boy, bring wine.
Digitized by Google U4 Songs of the Heart No classic maid art thou — just modern Alice ; Yet fair enough to turn despair to joy.
Gome now, charm from me, with your black eyes' malice, The world and care's alloy — That wine, boy.
Fair Lalage, however sweetly smiling, Beamed not on Horace with such eyes as thine ; Dark Amaryllis ...ne'er was so beguiling, Nor Hero so divine — Drink, drink wine.
Ah ! what is this ? A fleeting cloud of sadness, That love their hearts may never more annoy ?
Be wise, then, girl, and seize life's transient madness Ere hungry Time destroy — More wine, boy.
Perhaps — who knows ? — when we are dead, and scat- tered Through earth and sea and heaven, far and fine, Your name, like those of others wooed and flattered, May live in some sweet line — Ah, that wine !
But now's our turn for love and laughter, Alice ; Be coy, I pray you ; but be not too coy.
