FALSE THOUGH SHE BE

by: William Congreve (1670-1729)

ALSE though she be to me and love,

I'll ne'er pursue revenge;

For still the charmer I approve,

Though I deplore her change.

 

In hours of bliss we oft have met:

They could not always last;

And though the present I regret,

I'm grateful for the past.
