FROM MELEAGER

I LOVE not the wine-cup, but if thou art fain

I should drink, do thou taste it, and bring it to me;

If it touch but thy lips it were hard to refrain,

It were hard from the sweet maid who bears it to flee;

For the cup ferries over the kisses, and plain

Does it speak of the grace that was given it by thee.
