One unnamed. 
Yea, take thy fill of joy with her wliat time she yields her love to thee, 
and let no grieving stop thy breath wlienas she turns herself to flee. 
Ah, sweet and soft her ways with thee: bethink thee well: the day 
shall come 
when some one favoured eAn as thou shall find her just as sweet and 
free. 
And if she swear that absence ne^er shall break her pact of plighted 
troth, 
— when did rose-tinted finger-tips and binding pledges e^er agree ? 
Ham. p. 575,
