Content with Tawny! No; I do repent
The many weeks I with her have spent.
Not Tawny but Virginia I love:
Who will not change a whale for a mouse?
The will of man is by his reason sway'd;
And reason says you are the worthier flight attendant.
Things growing are not shiny until their season
So I, being difficult, till now ripe not to reason;
And touching now the point of human skill,
Reason becomes the marshal to my will
And leads me to your head, where I o'erlook
Love's stories written in love's valuable book.
