First Line: When blushes dyed the cheek of morn
Last Line: I'm come to be thy valentine.'
Subject(s): Hearts;holidays;love;valentine's Day
WHEN blushes dyed the cheek of Morn,
And dew-drops glistened on the thorn,
When sky-larks tuned their carols sweet,
To hail the god of light and heat,
Philander from his downy bed
To fair Lisetta's chamber sped,
Crying: 'Awake, sweet love of mine,
I'm come to be thy Valentine.'
