ghizela rowe - thomas middleton - how near i am to happiness lyrics
Loading...
how near am i to happiness
that earth exceeds not! not another like it:
the treasures of the deep are not so precious
as are the concealed comforts of a man
lock’s up in woman’s love. i scent the air
of blessings when i come but near the house:
what a delicious breath marriage sends forth!
the violet bed’s not sweeter. honest wedlock
is like a banqueting house built in a garden
on which the spring’s chaste flowers take delight
to cast their modest odours. ++++
++ now for a welcome
able to draw men’s envies upon man;
a kiss, now, that will hang upon my lip
as sweet as morning dew upon a rose
and full as long
