No matter - now - Sweet

R. Baksa

No matter - now - Sweet -

But when I'm Earl -

Won't you wish you'd spoken

To that dull Girl?

Trivial a Word - just -

Trivial - a Smile -

But won't you wish you'd spared one

When I'm Earl?

I shan't need it - then -

Crests - will do -

Eagles on my Buckles -

On my Belt - too -

Ermine - my familiar Gown -

Say - Sweet - then

Won't you wish you'd smiled - just -

Me upon?
