On Hearing That My Love Was Angry

by

Listen in the reader

Sweet love! and wast thou angry then, And did a lovely frown, O'ershade that brow of whitest pearl, That cheek of softest down?

Nay, be not so; thou can'st not be, Less lovely to my sight; Though darkness shade the cliff and vale, Yet starry is the night!
