Incurable

And if my heart be scarred and burned

The safer, I, for all I learned

The calmer, I, to see it true

That ways of love are never new

The love that sets you daft and dazed

Is every love that ever blazed

The happier, I, to fathom this

A kiss is every other kiss

The reckless vow, the lovely name

When Helen walked, were spoke the same

The weighted breast, the grinding woe

When Phaon fled, were ever so

Oh, it is sure as it is sad

That any lad is every lad

And what's a girl, to dare implore

Her dear be hers forevermore?

Though he be tried and he be bold

And swearing death should he be cold

He'll run the path the others went

But you, my sweet, are different
