-I prithee send me back my heart,
-since I cannot have thine;
-For if from yours you will not part,
-Why then shouldst thou have mine?
-Why should two hearts in one breast lie
-And yet not lodge together?
-O Love! where is thy sympathy
-If thus our hearts thou sever?
-But love is such a mystery,
-I cannot find it out;
-For when I think I'm best resolved
-I then am most in doubt.
-Then farewell care, and farewell woe;
-I will pine no longer;
-For I'll believe I have her heart
-As much as she has mine.}}
