Drink to me only with thine eyes


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.
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
...Doth ask a drink divine;
But might I of Jove's nectar sup,
...I would not change for thine.

Ben Jonson (1573-1637)
