 Suitor by Lawrence Alma-tadema from a google search

Flippant Suitor

To where do rosebuds traverse

If not in the sequence of verse


In the intentions of our universe

Already fixed to no reverse


Why then suitor, romancer, do worse

Than a heart wounded or curse


As bended knee rises another to converse

With same adoration so perverse
