Pierrot Monologue from The Pierrot of the Minute

From The Pierrot of the Minute by Ernest Dowson

male · melancholic · 40 sec

Ah, mock me not! In vain with quirk and jest I strive to quench the passion in my breast; In vain thy blandishments would make me play: Still I desire far more than I can say. My knowledge halts, ah, sweet, be piteous, Instruct me still, while time remains to us, Be what thou wist, Goddess, moon-maid, Marquise , So that I gather from thy lips heart's ease, Nay, I implore thee, think thee how time flies!
