What Matter?

WHAT MATTER ?

FAST falls the snow , O , lady mine ! Sprinkling the laAvn Avith crystals fine ; But , by the gods , we won't repine , While Ave ' re together . We'll chat and rhyme , and kiss and dine ,

Defying weather . So stir the fire and pour the wine , And let those sea-green eyes divine Pour then love madness into mine . I don't care whether 'Tis snow or sun , or rain or shine , If we ' re together .
