First Line: Not for your tender eyes that shine Last Line: A woman passes solitaire! Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John
Not for your tender eyes that shine, Nor for your red lips pulsing wine, I love you, dear: your soul divine, In sweet captivity, holds mine!
The tender eyes have lost their glow, The flagons of the lips run low, The autumn trembles in the air,— A woman passes solitaire!
