    With drear November's fog and snow
    Should prize the Topaz' amber hue--
    Emblem of friends and lovers true.

Nay, tarry a moment, my charming girl;
Here is a jewel of gold and pearl;
A beautiful cross it is I ween

Would thou could'st make the time to do so too;
I'll wind thee up no more.
