No, Thank You, JohnBY CHRISTINA ROSSETTI
I never said I loved you, John:
Why will you tease me, day by day,
And wax a weariness to think upon alliteration: shows her
frustration
With always "do" and "pray"?
You know I never loved you, John; *anaphora: emphatic
No fault of mine made me your toast:
Why will you haunt me with a face as wan
As shows an hour-old ghost?
I dare say Meg or Moll would take
Pity upon you, if you'd ask:
And pray don't remain single for my sake
Who can't perform that task.
I have no heart?—Perhaps I have not;
But then you're mad to take offence
That I don't give you what I have not got:
Use your common sense.
Let bygones be bygones: *the
imperative
Don't call me false, who owed not to be true:
I'd rather answer "No" to fifty Johns
Than answer "Yes" to you.
Let's mar our pleasant days no more, *mar=spoil, taint
Song-birds of passage, days of youth:
Catch at to-day, forget the days before:
I'll wink at your untruth.
Let us strike hands as hearty friends;
No more, no less: and friendship's good:
Only don't keep in view ulterior ends,
