What is the meaning of this: "And to sink in it, should you burthen love
Too great oppression for a tender thing"

"And to sink in it, should you burthen love—Too great oppression for a tender thing."

It means if you sink in love, then you're burdening it. You're putting too much weight on such a tender thing.

"And to sink in it, should you burthen love

Too great oppression for a tender thing"
