The Noble Gallant; / Or, An Answer to Long Days of Absence, &c. / He all those jealous Doubts of hers removes, / And now unto this fair one constant proves, / He tells her he is hers, none shall possess / Him, but her self, such love he doth express; / He gives her all content that can be spoken, / And chears her heart, which once was almost broken; / VVhat e're she asks she has, BEAUTY rules all, / It can a Lovers heart make rise or fall. | ||
