Begging Another
For
love's
sake,
kiss
me
once
again;
I
long,
and
should
not
beg
in
vain,
Here's
none
to
spy
or
see;
Why
do
you
doubt
or
stay?
I'll
taste
as
lightly
as
the
bee
That
doth
but
touch
his
flower
and
flies
away.
Once
more,
and
faith
I
will
be
gone;
Can
he
that
loves
ask
less
than
one?
Nay,
you
may
err
in
this
And
all
your
bounty
wrong;
This
could
be
called
but
half
a
kiss,
What
we're
but
once
to
do,
we
should
do
long.
I
will
but
mend
the
last,
and
tell
Where,
how
it
should
have
relished
well;
Join
lip
to
lip,
and
try
Each
suck
other's
breath.
And
whilst
our
tongues
perplexed
lie,
Let
who
will,
think
us
dead
or
wish
our
death.
