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

А rose will bloom, It then will fade:
so does a youth, so does the fairest [bad word] a 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 as gall,

love is a task and it never will pall.
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall,
Cupid [bad word] us all.
