Heart of me. why do you sighl
Why droop your eyelids, pale and shy,
Like snowflskes that on violets lie?-
Why do you sigh, my heart?
Sweeting. wherefore do you weep?-
Till the flowers that May winds steep,
When the day hath sunk to sleep,
Seem from beads o. dew TO pecp?-
Why do you weep, my sweet?
0my love. whence comes this glow.
Like the sunset on the snow,
Which on your fair face doth show?-
Why you blush. my queen?
Must spea your answer. dears
Listen then, and you will hear
Why you sigh and weep and blush.
Why now you bid me hush:
Sing. o sing, We birds that be;
Answer. music OF the sea:
Spin. old earth. to melody
For my one love loyeth me
Doth she not, my hearth
