I Asked a Thief Lyrics by Jack Beeson

Three Blake Songs

0

I asked a thief to steal me a peach:
He turned up his eyes
I ask'd a lithe lady to lie her down:
Holy and meek, she cries
As soon as I went
An Angel came:
He wink'd at the thief
And smil'd at the dame;
And without one word said
Had a peach from the tree
And still as a maid
Enjoy'd the lady
