His efforts to make love, his
troubles, his soliloquy, and finally his
rescue.
Allow me. dear, my love to express
And I’ll retire into darkness and distress.
Now, I’ll begin, by stating to you,
My warm feelings, and fervent love, too.
Oh 1 how I love you, thou little Belle,
No human, or mortal being o&u tell.
The great Jehovah, who resides above,
Only knows my turning heart of ardent love.
Its true thou art, sweet, guiltless and para.
Loved by the angels of Heaven, and tue, too.
My love, dear girl, shall ne’er prove a myth,
For no greater love for woman esn exist.
I’ll say in my eeliloquy, all alone,
No love for mo was ere shown,
Can the likeness of God love more,
. Than I, that lovely girl, I know 1
My life, I endangered for her,
And she no rewards, or thanks did confer.
Now, freed from danger, she scornfully re¬
plied,
1 accept no thanks from thee, and denied.
My assistance, in her rescue, or escape,
I’ll it all bear, and walk calmly down the
cape.
These aro the last words I’ve to say,
And my mind and body into dust shall de
cay.
