    Nay, tarry a moment, my charming girl;
    Here is a jewel of gold and pearl;
    A beautiful cross it is I ween
    As ever on beauty's breast was seen;
    There's nothing at all but love to pay;
    Take it and wear it, but only stay!

    I'm not--in such--particular--haste.

I'll wind thee up no more.
