Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes

Sun Nov 15, 2009, 7:42 PM
Just a little song from the 1770s I thought I should share with you all

Drink to me only with thine eyes
And I will pledge with mine.
Or leave a kiss within the cup
And I'll not ask for wine.
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
Doth ask a drink divine;
But might I of Jove's nectar sip,
I would not change for thine.

I sent thee late a rosy wreath,
Not so much hon'ring thee
As giving it a hope that there
It could not withered be;
But thou thereon did'st only breathe,
And sent'st it back to me,
Since when it grows and smells, I swear
Not of itself, but thee.

  • Mood: Yearning
  • Listening to: Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes
  • Reading: the Letters John and Abigail Adams wrote
  • Watching: nothing
  • Playing: nothing
  • Eating: hardtack
  • Drinking: spruce beer

No, in fact, I do not want your belief system shoved down my throat.

Yes, I do think I know more than you, and I am probably right.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
