EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 41. LOVE REQUIRES NO ENTREATIES by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: WHEN PARCHED FIELDS DENY THE WELCOME FLOODS
Last Line: THEN LOVE SHALL YIELD TO SIGHS, AND TEARS AND GROANS.

WHEN parched fields deny the welcome floods,
When honey shall ungrateful be to drones,
When wanton kids refuse the tender buds,
Then Love shall yield to sighs, and tears and groans.
