Oh Sumptuous moment
Slower go
That I may gloat on thee —
‘Twill never be the same to starve
Now I abundance see —
Which was to famish, then or now —
The difference of Day
Ask him unto the Gallows led —
With morning in the sky —
Oh Sumptuous moment
Slower go
That I may gloat on thee —
‘Twill never be the same to starve
Now I abundance see —
Which was to famish, then or now —
The difference of Day
Ask him unto the Gallows led —
With morning in the sky —
