Crazy Jane (1820)

Summary

Crazy Jane (1820)

“ And while they warble from each spray
Love meets the universal lay,
Let us, Amanda timely wise,
Like them improve the hour that flies,
And in soft raptures waste the day,
Among the birks of Invermay.
”

Crazy Jane (between 1815 and 1825)

“ ERE AROUND THE HUGE OAK
Ere around the huge oak, that o’ershadows yon mill
The fond ivy had dar’d to entwine;
Ere the church was a ruin, that nods on the hill,
Or a rook built its nest on the pine.

Crazy Jane (1820)

“ E'en took one another for better for worse.
Thee prithee dear Chloe, ne'er aim to be great,
Let love be thy jointure, ne'er mind an estate,
You can never be poor, who haves all those charms
And I shall be rich when I've you in my arms.
”
