SO were I bnt a minstrel, deft At weaving, with the trembling strings Of my glad harp, the warp and, weft Of rondels such as rapture sings, Id loop my lyre across my breast, Nor stay me till my knee found rest In midnight banks of bnd and flower Beneath my ladys lattice-bower. And there, drenched with the teary dews, Id woo her with such wondrous art As well might stanch the songs that ooze Out of the mockbirds breaking heart So light, so tender, and so sweet Should be the words I would repeat, Her casement, on my gradual sight, Would blossom as a lily might.
