ok, i was wrong, it was from a short "song" written by Blake, it goes a little
something like this:
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 & meek she cries--

As soon as I went
An angel came.
He wink'd at the thief
And smild at the dame--

And without one word said
Had a peach from the tree
And still as a maid
Enjoy'd the lady.

have a lucky day...
love ryan
