Hands Less Cold
I LIE upon my last made bed,
About to share it with the dead.
Death's cold hand makes me think the more
Of other hands less cold before.
I will not press too close; no fear
Of finding any rival near;
Nor will ye turn your heads away
From the fond things I used to say,
Nor shall I hear. Now, I declare ,
You jealous man! how changed you are.
Too true indeed is that remark,
And ye may see it in the dark.
About to share it with the dead.
Death's cold hand makes me think the more
Of other hands less cold before.
I will not press too close; no fear
Of finding any rival near;
Nor will ye turn your heads away
From the fond things I used to say,
Nor shall I hear. Now, I declare ,
You jealous man! how changed you are.
Too true indeed is that remark,
And ye may see it in the dark.
