Proposal

Whilst walking and minding mine own affairs, 
a lady did catch me quite unawares. 
Planting a slap on my reddening face, 
she called me a cad, I felt a disgrace.
I stood back and bowed, my lady I'm sure,
I meant no offence, I spoke not a word.
You sir, are a thief. I'll even the score.
You've stolen my heart, and now I'll have yours.
Forgive me dear lady, I've been so blind,
If  I'd only known, I'd not be unkind.
You are right, fair is fair, yes, I agree!
An eye for an eye, is alright by me.
I will place myself at your disposal,
when  you accept my humble proposal.  

By Jove !
