Don’t test the egg’s hatching

To tell or not to tell is my anguish.
What I shall, you should lead me to tell.
If I tell, I fear, it may dropp a shell.
If not to tell, my love is in the well.
If you are hit or I am hit, both are hit.
To tell or not to tell is my anguish.
To tell and not to lose is my wish.
If I tell, still I fear you may banish.
I shall not risk playing and losing.
Let me be not to tell you of my love.
