SHREDS AND PATCHES.
CONSOLATION.
POUR moi, je crois que je vous aime,
My bright and saucy little dame;
But if I don't, it's all the same,
I see.
For when I woo you, little one,
You will not e'en say yes in fun;
But frown upon me then, and shun
Poor me.

Since this is so, my sweet, I think
'T were best to pause upon the brink
Of Eros' fountain e'er I drink
Ses eaux.
