John Dryden - A Song. High State And Honours To Others Impart
Work rating: Low

High state and honours to others impart,
    But give me your heart:
  That treasure, that treasure alone,
    I beg for my own.

  So gentle a love, so fervent a fire,
    My soul does inspire;
  That treasure, that treasure alone,
    I beg for my own.
  Your love let me crave;
      Give me in possessing
    So matchless a blessing;
  That empire is all I would have.
      Love`s my petition,
        All my ambition;
      If e`er you discover
      So faithful a lover,
      So real a flame,
      I`ll die, I`ll die,
      So give up my game.
