How young was he to be dissembler,

Feel jealousy and harbor hope,

Persuade, dissuade, and then surrender

To feels, to look like sad or bored,

To appear proud and obedient,

Attentive, listless or convenient!

How was he languishing tightlipped,

And how expressively could speak!

How careless was in private letters!

And when something had stirred his blood

How could give up himself for love!

How fast and tender were his glances!

He could be bashful, could be gay,

And could drop tears, which were a play!
