He
Believe me!
She
Why! is your love so poor?
He
No. Yet you might deceive me!
She
As many a girl before.—
Ah, dear, you will forgive me?
He
Say no more, sweet, say no more!
She

Trust wins through love; whereof, my dear,
Love holds through trust: and love, my dear,
Is—all my life and lore.
He

Give me the kiss you owe.—
You run when I would hold you?
She
No! no! I say! now, no!—
How often have I told you,
You must not use me so?
He
More sweet the dusk for this is,
For lips that meet in kisses.—
Come! come! why run from blisses
As from a dreadful foe?
