Sara Teasdale

A Song of the Princess

The princess has her lovers,
A score of knights has she,
And each can sing a madrigal,
And praise her gracefully.
 
But Love that is so bitter
Hath put within her heart
A longing for the scornful knight
Who silent stands apart.
 
And tho’ the others praise and plead,
She maketh no reply,
Yet for a single word from him,
I ween that she would die.
