HYMN IX

A man's love-charm 1. Desire my body, love my feet, love thou mine eyes, and love my    legs.   Let both thine eyes and hair, fond girl! be dried and parched.    through love of me. 2. I make thee hang upon mine arm, I make thee lie upon my    heart.   Thou yieldest to my wish, that thou mayst be submissive to my    will. 3. May they whose kisses are a bond, a love-charm laid within the    heart,   Mothers of butter, may the cows incline that maid to love of    me.
