First Line: I do not love, nor can it be
Last Line: Kil'd by a frost or by a flame.
Subject(s): Love - Complaints


I do not love, nor can it be
Love will in vain spend shafts on me:
I did this God-head once defie;
Since which I freeze, but cannot frie.
Yet out alas! the deaths the same,
Kil'd by a frost or by a flame.
