For such a man cannot deceive—
A worthy Valentine.
TO A LADY.
Every day I think on thee,
Every night my love I see,
Thoughts and dreams so well agree,
I sure may say,
They’re indeed a happy sign,
That my love shall soon be mine,
And I shall be her Valentine,
Auspicious day !
A SAILOR TO A LADY.
I know that you are
So kind to a tar,
You’ll never keep love under hatches
Then will you be mine,
My dear Valentine ?
Say, Yes, and by Neptune a match ’tis.
I hope I may ffnd
A calm to my mind,
And Valentine’s day be fine weather;
I’m hardy and free,
So, if you agree,
To Hymen we’ll steer both together.
