The Frozen Heart

I freeze, I freeze, and nothing dwells

In me but snow and icicles.

For pity’s sake, give your advice,

To melt this snow and thaw this ice.

I’ll drink down flames; but if so be

Nothing but love can supple me,

I’ll rather keep this frost and snow

Than to be thaw’d or heated so.
