Give her her ribbon, belt or scarf -
   To match my rainbow in the sky;
Let her prefer her looking-glass,
   When dewdrops meet me, eye to eye.
Give her her pretty flowers or stars,
   Embossed in silk and figured lace;
While I prefer their living forms,
   Set in a green or azure place.
Give her her choice, and give me mine,
   Remembering still Love’s greater worth -
That she and I prefer each other
   To any thing in Heaven or Earth.
