| 421. Song |
| ONLY tell her that I love: | |
| Leave the rest to her and Fate: | |
| Some kind planet from above | |
| May perhaps her pity move: | |
| Lovers on their stars must wait.— | 5 |
| Only tell her that I love! | |
| Why, O why should I despair! | |
| Mercy 's pictured in her eye: | |
| If she once vouchsafe to hear, | |
| Welcome Hope and farewell Fear! | 10 |
| She 's too good to let me die.— | |
| Why, O why should I despair? |
