[00:07.52] If thou must love me, let it be for nought
[00:10.72] Except for love’s sake only. Do not say
[00:14.75] 'I love her for her smile…her look…her way
[00:17.74] Of speaking gently, … for a trick of thought
[00:20.51] That falls in well with mine, and certs brought
[00:23.59] A sense of pleasant ease on such a day'-
[00:26.86] For these things in themselves, Beloved, may
[00:29.44] Be changed, or change for thee, -and love, so wrought,
[00:34.76] May be unwrought so. Neither love me for
[00:38.15] Thine own dear pity’s wiping my cheeks dry,
[00:42.35] A creature might forget to weep, who bore
[00:44.47] Thy comfot long, and lose thy love thereby.
[00:48.90] But love me for love’s sake, that evermore
[00:52.42] Thou may’st love on, through love’s eternity.
[00:56.21]
[00:07.52] If thou must love me, let it be for nought
[00:10.72] Except for love' s sake only. Do not say
[00:14.75] ' I love her for her smile her look her way
[00:17.74] Of speaking gently, for a trick of thought
[00:20.51] That falls in well with mine, and certs brought
[00:23.59] A sense of pleasant ease on such a day'
[00:26.86] For these things in themselves, Beloved, may
[00:29.44] Be changed, or change for thee, and love, so wrought,
[00:34.76] May be unwrought so. Neither love me for
[00:38.15] Thine own dear pity' s wiping my cheeks dry,
[00:42.35] A creature might forget to weep, who bore
[00:44.47] Thy comfot long, and lose thy love thereby.
[00:48.90] But love me for love' s sake, that evermore
[00:52.42] Thou may' st love on, through love' s eternity.
