Love lyrics

Artist  : George Herbert 
Song : Love



 Send "Love" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
LOVE bade me welcome: yet my soul drew back,  


                Guiltie of dust and sinne.
  

But quick-ey'd Love, observing me grow
slack   

                From my first
entrance in,   

Drew nearer to me, sweetly
questioning,          5 

                If
I lack'd any thing.   

   

A guest, I
answer'd, worthy to be here:   

           
    Love said, you shall be he.   

I the
unkinde, ungratefull? Ah my deare,   

     
          I cannot look on thee.   10 

Love
took my hand, and smiling did reply,   

   
            Who made the eyes but I?   

  


Truth Lord, but I have marr'd them: let my
shame   

                Go where it doth
deserve.   

And know you not, sayes Love,
who bore the blame?   15 

               
My deare, then I will serve.   

You must
sit down, sayes Love, and taste my meat:   

                So I did sit and eat.
