MY LITTLE NEIGHBOUR (VICTOR HUGO.)
If yan nothing hato to eny, Why so often come this way i
Rosy lips and blue eyes smiling,
Stronger heads than mina beguiling
From their study and their labour; .
Tell mo, charming little neighbour
If
you nothing have to say,
Why so often como this way?
If you nothing have to teach,
Why not prectise na you proach? Eittle hands ao softly pressing Tousing half, and half caressing. Saucy lips, and sparkling eye, Nocdo must have a reason why: If you nothing have to trach Why not practise as you preach ?
If you say I havd not, won yon, Why not, sweat one, let me shun you. Now y books: asidu no thrown, You I sad, and you
alono
If you over are denying,
Why then hinder me from lying? fi you say I have not won you, Why not, sweat one, let mon clan you ?
