      So, thou hast scorned me, my delight and heir;
      Thy father's halls, then, were not broad and fair
      Enough for thee to dwell here longer, sweet.
      True, there was nothing, nothing in them meet
      5
      For thy swift-budding reason, that foretold
      Virtues the future years would yet unfold.
      Thy words, thy archness, every turn and bow —
      How sick at heart without them am I now!
      Nay, little comfort, never more shall I
      10
      Behold thee and thy darling drollery.
      What may I do but only follow on
      Along the path where earlier thou hast gone.
      And at its end do thou, with all thy charms,
      Cast round thy father's neck thy tender arms.
