A Serenade

‘Sas agapo sas agapo,’
He sang beneath her lattice.
'Sas agapo’?' she murmured-'O,
I wonder, now, what _that_ is!'
 
Was she less fair that she did bear
So light a load of knowledge?
Are loving looks got out of books,
Or kisses taught in college?
 
Of woman’s lore give me no more
Than how to love,-in many
A tongue men brawl: she speaks them all
Who says ‘I love,’ in any.
