Sir Youthful Anxious
What to do When you woo, Listen and I'll tell it you. Deep humility must teach That the star's beyond your reach, Yet must courage raise your heart To the conqueror's lofty part. Not too forward, shyly bold. Not too hot, but never cold. Fearing still to tread too near, Treading nigher, spite of fear. Laying all your logic down As you pick your manhood up, Disbelieving every frown, Intent always on the cup.
Hold her hand, Hold her gaze, Always stand In her ways ; Humbly kiss Her finger-tip ; She'll surrender You her lip.
