Love Not Me For Comely Grace – Anon

Filed under: Poetry — by cerene @ 5:16 pm

    Love not me for comely grace,
    For my pleasing eye or face,
    Nor for any outward part,
    No, nor for a constant heart:
    For these may fail or turn to ill,
    So thou and I shall sever:
    Keep, therefore, a true woman’s eye,
    And love me still but know not why—
    So hast thou the same reason still
    To dote upon me ever!
