A REQUEST.
O give me but one friendly heart,
Where I may safely fondly dwell,
Where vile deceit hath not a part,
To break hope's pure enchanting spell.
Where I may safely fondly dwell,
Where vile deceit hath not a part,
To break hope's pure enchanting spell.
No vain regrets shall then be mine,
I will not grieve that joy flies fast,
But calmly unto Fate resign
All else in life, till life be past.
I will not grieve that joy flies fast,
But calmly unto Fate resign
All else in life, till life be past.
