Of Love (3)

by Robert Herrick, 1648

1. Instruct me now what love will do.
2. ’Twill make a tongueless man to woo.
1. Inform me next, what love will do.
2. ’Twill strangely make a one of two.
1. Teach me besides, what love will do.
2. ’Twill quickly mar, and make ye too.
1. Tell me now last, what love will do.
2. ’Twill hurt and heal a heart pierc’d through.
