First Line: When I pass down the street and see

Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H.
When I pass down the street and see
The people smiling so,
It's clear enough that my true love
Was there awhile ago.
Her lips that, following her two eyes,
Go smiling here and there,
Seem newly kissed -- but 'tis my faith
That none but I would dare.
Love, like a drop of dew that joins
Two blades of grass together,
Has made her mine, as I am hers,
For ever and for ever.
