My dearest love when last you paid

The touch Of thy soft hand gave me
A strong electric thrill.
A spark flashed from thy burning eye,

And when through hours Of toll we bent
How sweet boon t'Would be
To know Of your kind, tender heart,
That retained the "key.n
Should Cupid's current e'er grow weak,

I'd turn me 10 the rosy cheek
And just renew my battery"
