First Line: When thou to my true love com'st
Last Line: "say, I come tomorrow"
Subject(s): Death;germany;hearts;heaven;love - Loss Of; "dead, The;germans;paradise;
When thou to my true-love com'st
Greet her from me kindly;
When she asks thee how I fare?
Say, folks in Heaven fare finely.
When she asks, 'What! Is he sick?'
Say, dead! -- and when for sorrow
She begins to sob and cry,
Say. I come to-morrow.
