    English and Scottish Ballads (The Poetry Bookshelf)

    Love, then unstinted, Love did sip,
    And cherries plucked fresh from the lip;
    On cheeks and roses free he fed;
    Lasses like autumn plums did drop,
    And lads indifferently did crop
    A flower and a maidenhead.
    —Richard Lovelace (1618–1658)
