The apple of forbidden thought pluck'd hence
From yonder tree did tempt an eager mind
That wreckless in abandonment has since
Rudely gorged upon the fruit 'till rind.
The juicy sweetness dabbed by fruit like lips,
Whose temptation is no mere devil'ry.
A sumpt'us kiss not written in the scripts
But dressed only by one single liv'ry.
Barrenness bless'd by locks of golden hair
That, life like, come and go o'er supple skin.
A grand surprise, no doubt, with out compare,
That makes me wonder if I'm going to win.
Beware of fable and of lore, my friend,
Or else be doomed by repeated, bitter end.
