ghizela rowe - john donne - the primrose lyrics

Loading...

upon this primrose hill
where, if heav’n would distill
a shower of rain, each several drop might go
to his own primrose, and grow manna so;
and where their form and their infinity
make a terrestrial galaxy
as the small stars do in the sky:
i walk to find a true love; and i see
that ’tis not a mere woman that is she
but must or more or less than woman be

yet know i not which flower
i wish; a six, or four;
for should my true+love less than woman be
she were scarce any thing; and then, should she
be more than woman she would get above
all thought of s+x, and think to move
my heart to study her, and not to love;
both these were monsters; since there must reside
falsehood in woman, i could more abide
she were by art than nature falsified

live primrose then, and thrive
with thy true number five;
and woman, whom this flower doth represent
with this mysterious number be content;
ten is the farthest number; if half ten
belong unto each woman, then
each woman may take half us men;
or if this will not serve their turn, since all
numbers are odd or even, and they fall
first into this, five, woman may take us all
