That Selfish Woman

A thousand of favours from me she drew And one by one, in the river she threw O what a woman with friendless command Speaks of love but stretching out her selfish hand Her eyes stuck all over my face Her love had no dwelling, why did I give her a place? For the fear of mishap has captured me be loaf See how she has made my appetite found aloof What a needless and worthless treasure, I must sell She wants to empty my entire fountain in her well I will surely tear her and break her in twain Storming her life with destruction and rain
