Canst thou break his faithful heart? Turn again, thou fair Eliza, If to love t hy heart denies; For pity hide the cruel sentence, Under friendships kind disquise! Thee, d.ear maid, have I offended? The offence is loving thee ; Canst thou wreck his pee.ce forever, Who for thine would gladly die! While the life beats in my bosom, Thou shall mix in it a throe; Turn again thou lovely maiden, One sweet smile on me bestow. Not the bee upon the blossom, In the pride of sunny noon; Not the li t tle sporting fairy, All beneath the summer moon. Not the pact in the moment, Fancy lightens on his feye; Keen the pleasure feels the rapture, That thy presence gives to me. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
