Come live with me and be my Love,
\nAnd we will all the pleasures prove
\nThat hills and valleys, dale and field,
\nAnd all the craggy mountains yield. <\/p>\n
There will we sit upon the rocks
\nAnd see the shepherds feed their flocks,
\nBy shallow rivers, to whose falls
\nMelodious birds sing madrigals. <\/p>\n
There will I make thee beds of roses
\nAnd a thousand fragrant posies,
\nA cap of flowers, and a kirtle
\nEmbroider’d all with leaves of myrtle. <\/p>\n
A gown made of the finest wool
\nWhich from our pretty lambs we pull,
\nFair lined slippers for the cold,
\nWith buckles of the purest gold. <\/p>\n
A belt of straw and ivy buds
\nWith coral clasps and amber studs:
\nAnd if these pleasures may thee move,
\nCome live with me and be my Love. <\/p>\n
Thy silver dishes for thy meat
\nAs precious as the gods do eat,
\nShall on an ivory table be
\nPrepared each day for thee and me. <\/p>\n
The shepherd swains shall dance and sing
\nFor thy delight each May-morning:
\nIf these delights thy mind may move,
\nThen live with me and be my Love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
