Love’s Blend

I love you so, sweetheart,

     I don’t know why;

‘Tis not your subtle art

     Men praise so high,

Nor yet your peerless face

Your undertaking grace

     That bids me sigh

Sweetheart I love you so,

     I cannot tell

Just why, but this I know

     I love you well.

‘Tis not for “thee” or “thine”,

It is the blend divine

     That weaves the spell.
