What is a youth? Impetuous fire.
What is a maid? Ice and desire.
The world wags on...

rose will bloom, It then will fade:
So does a youth, so does the fairest maid.
 [bad word] the time when one sweet smile
Has its season for a while.
Then love's in love with me...
Some they think only to marry,
Others will tease and tarry.
Mine is the very best parry,
Cupid [bad word] us all...
Caper the cape, but sing me the song.
Death [bad word] soon to hush us along.
Sweeter than honey and bitter than gall,
Love is a task and it never will pall.
Sweeter than honey and bitter than gall,
Cupid [bad word] us all.
