thomas campion - fain would i my love disclose lyrics

Loading...

faine would i my loue disclose
aske what honour might denye ;
but both loue and her i lose
from my motion if shee flye
worse then paine is feare to mee :
then hold in fancy though it burne
if not happy, safe ile be
and to my clostred cares returne

yet, ô yet, in vaine i striue
to represse my school’d desire ;
more and more the flames reuiue
i consume in mine owne firе
she would pitty, might shee know
the harmes that i for hеr endure :
speake then, and get comfort so ;
a wound long hid growes past recure

wise shee is, and needs must know
all th’ attempts that beauty moues :
fayre she is, and honour’d so
that she, sure, hath tryed some loues
if with loue i tempt her then
’tis but her due to be desir’d :
what would women thinke of men
if their deserts were not admir’d ?
women, courted, haue the hand
to discard what they distaste :
but those dames whom none demand
want oft what their wils imbrac’t
could their firmnesse iron excell
as they are faire, they should be sought :
when true theeues vse falsehood well
as they are wise they will be caught
