Blink to me only with thine eyes

Blink to me only with thine eyes,

And I will wink with mine,

Or leave a note within the post

And I'll come out to dine.

An invitation from a Duke

Requires a garb divine,

But my old neck-tie, at the most,

Is all I'd change for thine.

I sent thee late a little cheque

That could not honoured be,

But having then a hope that there

It might be cashed by thee;

But thou thereon did'st only look

And sent it back to me,

Since when thou lov'st to curse and swear,

Not at the cheque, but me.
