Sweet Words - Sicilian Octave

Your sweet words given me past time do play
with ease upon this happy mind again.
Together we can take a stroll this day
and I'll relate to you some lofty gain
That lofty gain is you dear Joan, come stay
with me forever through all life's rain
Then I'll give you things o'er my joyful way
and you'll have life that's ne'er been use in vain.
