And scornfully leave me, oh! where am I then,

these words I speak is by the powers above,
The rocks and the mountains shall sooner remove
And the sea shall flame on fire,
If from my eve I shall retire,
And there's nothing I desire but innocent love.

If innocent love is all your request,
And you in earnest, I thought you were in jest,
I'll adore you with pleasure,
With kisses out of measure,
With joy, peace & pleasure we both shall be blest.

This couple they're married, and live very happy,
Enjoying one another with pleasures to canty,
The rocks they shall melt.
And the mountains shall remove,
Ere ever prove false to the woman I love.
