I'm so wrapped up in love of her.
IL some misfortune should occur
by which she'd pass from out my life
Without my having called her wife
Should Fate thus move, my heart
would break.
U only live for her sweet Sake.)
Her pledge released to death I'd go
At least, at least L tell her so!
Should / be robbed of her by Fate,
I'd sit and moan disconsolate;
And should a thousand maidens try
My heart to win, I'd glance them by
And, as in grief | bowed my head,
Say, Love to mes forever dead"
The monks I'd join and don u hood
That is to say, she thinks / would!
I'm one among q million men,
My likes ne'er lived, nor will again
I'm witty, clever, manly, too,
Fine looking, honest, good and true;
I'm pure, straightforward and sincere.
I'm what tease and ''such a dear.
True knight am L. and not sham
That is to say, she thinks | am!
