Caroline Elizabeth Sarah Norton - The Crooked Sixpence
Work rating: Low

TAKE then back your foolish token, 
Since it cannot change like you; 
When I feel my heart is broken, 
Shall it still proclaim you true? 
When you gave it, you besought me 
Never from that pledge to part: 
If I am what then you thought me, 
You have spurned an honest heart! 

When, far hence, the boisterous billows 
Rage upon the stormy deep; 
And your landsmen press their pillows, 
Careless how we sailors sleep: 
Think how happy you had made him-- 
Think how grieved he was to part;-- 
Who, though harshly you upbraid him, 
Loved ye, with an honest heart! 

Farewell, Nancy, but if ever 
Eyes you love grow gloomy, then, 
Oh! remember, though we sever 
You have still a friend in Ben. 
Yes; dear girl, he`ll still defend you; 
And some comfort `twill impart, 
Aid of any sort to lend you-- 
Though you broke an honest heart!
