He that loves lightliest,
Shall not happen on the best;
He that loves longest,
Shall have rest surest;
He that loves all his best,
Shall chance upon the goodliest;
Whoso in love is true and plain,
He shall be loved well again;
Men may say whatever they please,
In mutual love is mickle ease.
Alexander B Meek
