Lorelei |
| Færie dearest, was it loe soothfast or a façade; |
| A serenade siren’d to lure — Zounds! |
| not to court me? |
| A mænad, yet the sweetest colleen — |
| Certes didst thou me unveil meekly life pristine |
| Lorelei |
| A poet of tragedies, scribe I lauds to Death |
| Yet who the hell was I to dare? |
| Lorelei |
| Canst thou not see thou to me needful art? |
| Canst thou not see the loss of loe painful is? |
| Dædally didst thou perform the tragic pasquinade |
| For all years a damndest and driegh’d accolade — |
| Caus’d for all eyes mazéd to behold a mêlée; |
| In the midst did I swainly cast thee my bouquet: |
| The one and sole faggot that feedeth the fire |
| Bellow´d bidingly by my heart’s quailing quire |
| Lorelei |
| A poet of tragedies, scribe I lauds to Death |
| Yet who the hell was I to dare? |
| Lorelei |
| Canst thou not see thou to me needful art? |
| Canst thou not see the loss of loe painful is? |
| Perchance author I thee this ikon’d apologue for aught |
| Doth the wecht burthen thee?, then bethink thine afterthought: |
| 'Tween Æther and 'Nether art thou the peerless phœnix — |
| Prithee, darlingmost! |
| — court me rather than the peevish prolix |
