• My dearest love of many years,
    I hate to say I have some fears,
    These gifts you bring are quite lovely,
    Please don’t take my words adversely.

    My heart is in a torn state,
    To fallow tradition or wait for fate,
    You see there is a wealthy man,
    Who comes with wedding ring in hand.

    My family’s status raised,
    That will be blessed with crowds praise,
    But my heart still rests with you,
    That’s why I know not what to do.
