philip rosseter - when laura smiles lyrics

Loading...

when laura smiles her sight revives both night and day
the earth and heaven view with delight her wanton play
and her speech with everflowing music doth repair
the cruel wounds of sorrow and untam’d despair

the dainty sprites that still remain in fleeting air
affect for pastime to untwine her tressèd hair
and the birds think sweet aurora, morning’s queen, doth shine
from her bright sphere when laura shews her looks divine

diana’s eyes are not adorn’d with greater power
than laura’s whеn she lists awhile for sport to lower
but whеn she her eyes encloseth, blindness doth appear
the chiefest grace of beauty, sweetly seated there

love hath no fire but what he steals from her bright eyes
time hath no power, but that which in her pleasure lies
for she, with her divine beauties, all the world subdues
and fills with heav’nly spirits my humble muse
