The Muse
I HAVE no ale,
No wine I want;
No ornaments,
My meat is scant.
No maid is near,
I have no wife;
But here's my pipe
And, on my life:
With it to smoke,
And woo the Muse,
To be a king
I would not choose.
But I crave all,
When she does fail —
Wife, ornaments,
Meat, wine and ale.
No wine I want;
No ornaments,
My meat is scant.
No maid is near,
I have no wife;
But here's my pipe
And, on my life:
With it to smoke,
And woo the Muse,
To be a king
I would not choose.
But I crave all,
When she does fail —
Wife, ornaments,
Meat, wine and ale.
