henry lawes - have you e'er seen the morning sun lyrics

Loading...

have you e’er seen the morning sun
from fair aurora’s bosom run?
or have you seen on flora’s bed
the essences of white and red?
then you may boast, for you have seen
my fairer chloris, beauties queen

have you e’er pleas’d your skilful ears
with the sweet musick of the spheres?
have you e’er hear’d the syrens sing
or orpheus play to h+lls black king?
if so, be happy and rejoyce
for thou hast heard my chloris voice

have you e’er smelt what chymick sk!ll
from rose or amber doth distill?
have you been near that sacrifice
the phœnix makes before she dies?
then you can tell (i do presume)
my chloris is the world’s perfume

have you e’er tasted what the bee
steals from each fragrant flower or tree?
or did you ever taste that meat
which poets say that gods did eat?
o then i will no longer doubt
but you have found my chloris out
