A Hamlet For A Slothful Vassal - Lyrics by Theatre Of Tragedy


Lyrics
"
Behold a jocund morn indeed! -
Sun on high - birds in sky.
Yonder the whist firth eathing,
Fro where a gale erranteth.""
Ye beholdest but the shadow.
Mayhap a tithe of trothplight -I deep - e'er and anon!""
To and fro, save hither,
Is thy love.""
Not a loth! -
But vying for my kinsmen!""
Beautiful tyrant!
Fiend Angelica!
Dove-feathered raven!
Woluish-ravening lamb!A hamlet for a slothful vassal -
Soothing ale for a parched sot.
Hie to tell me
What ye judgest as naught
I behold the shadow!""E'er thou sayest aye!
Thief of a plot!
Now go to thy tryst!
Go, leave, totter! -
Until ye dwindlest.A morsel, nay more,
For thy journey
Hither and thither!""
That is a lie!
Lief I am not!
My words are but a twist
Fare well! - with jiy I came,
With rue I leave.
Even the orb cannot.
Help me melt the ice?""
That is a lie!
Lief I am not!
My words are but a twist
Tis a feigned lie through loathing,I say!""A dotard gaffer, I daresay...""...a sapling not!""
Wherefore call me such names;
Nay imp am I!
Thou art my aghast hart -
Gazing in the glade."
