EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 4. THE TIMOROUS ADVENTURER by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: I'LL ON AND VENTURE TO EXPRESS MY MIND
Last Line: ABASHT FOR FEAR AND, 'CAUSE ABASHT, AFRAID.
Subject(s): LOVE;
I'LL on and venture to express my mind --
Both Love and Fortune to the bold are kind;
How oft do I my timorous heart upbraid,
Abasht for fear and, 'cause abasht, afraid.
