I fill this cup to one made up
Of loveliness alone,
A woman, of her gentle sex

Drink to me only with thine eyes,
And I will pledge with mine;
Or leave a kiss but in the cup,
And I'll not look for wine.

A health to the nut-brown lass,
With the hazel eyes: let it pass.

A health to the nut-brown lass,
With the hazel eyes: let it pass.

As much to the lively grey
'Tis as good i' th' night as day:

She's a savour to the glass,
And excuse to make it pass.
