Should he upbraid

H. Bishop

Should he upbraid, I'll own that he prevail

And sing as sweetly as the nightingale

Say that he frown, I'll say his looks I view

As morning roses newly tip'd with dew.

Say he be mute, I'll answer with a smile,

And dance and play, And wrinkled care beguile

Should he upbraid, I'll own that he prevail

And sing as sweetly as the nightingale.
