    He either fears his fate too much,
  Or his deserts are small,
That dares not put it to the touch
  To gain or lose it all. 1
          My Dear and only Love.

    I ’ll make thee glorious by my pen,
  And famous by my sword. 2
          My Dear and only Love.

That puts it not unto the touch
To win or lose it all.

And glorious by my sword.
