We garner the flowers . . .

So slender her shape,
A beauty is she.
A guard of passion,
Caressed in silken love.

We weep onto her grave
That hidden beauty, inveighed.
Her honor so fallen, she scorns.

By sending me prick,
Baptized in blood,
Bolted her trusty thorn!

And the flowers we pick, still!
