  2   2  2  -2 -2  3 -2  2    -1  2
Drink to me on-ly with thine eyes
-2 3 1 -2    2     -1   1
And I will pledge with mine.
2    2   2  -2   -2  3 -2 2  -1  2
Or leave a kiss with-in  the cup
-2   3  1 -2  2  -1   1
And I'll not ask for wine.
 3    3   2  3   4    3   3  2  3   3
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
 3   -3  3   3 -2 2  2
Doth ask a drink di-vine;
 2    2   2 -2   -2    3 -2 2 -1   2
But might I of Jove's nec-tar sip,
-2  3  1 -2  2  -1   1  
I would not ask for wine.

I sent thee late a rosy wreath,
Not so much hon'ring thee
As giving it a hope that there
It could not withered be;

But thou thereon did'st only breathe,
And sent'st it back to me,
Since when it grows and smells, I swear
Not of itself, but thee.
