IN THE STONE
Love Not Me-Anonymous
Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleading eye or face,
Nor for any outward part,
No, nor for a constant heart!
For these may fail, or turn to ill:
So thou and I shall sever.
Keep therefore a true woman's eye,
And love me still, but know not why!
So hast thou the same reason still
To dote upon me ever.
