The Reconcilement


The Reconcilement
Come,let us now resolve at last
To live and love in quiet ;
We’ll tie the knot  so very fast
That time shall ne’er untie it .

 The truest joys they seldom prove
Who free from quarrels live;
Tis the most tender part of love
Each other  to forgive.

When least seem’d concen’d,I took
No pleasure nor no rest;
Andwhen I feign’d an angry look,
Alas! I loved you best.

Own  but the same to me you’ll find
How  blest will be our fate .
 O to be happy  ___ to be kind –
Sure never is too late !
                                    Jhon Sheffield (1649-1720 )
