The Whole Works of William Browne | ||
To his worthily-affected Friend Mr. VV. Browne.
Awake
sad Muse, and thou my sadder spright,
Made so by Time, but more by Fortunes spight,
Awake, and hie vs to the Greene,
There shall be seene
The quaintest Lad of all the time
For neater Rime:
Whose free and vnaffected straines
Take all the Swaines
That are not rude and ignorant,
Or Enuy want.
Made so by Time, but more by Fortunes spight,
Awake, and hie vs to the Greene,
There shall be seene
The quaintest Lad of all the time
For neater Rime:
Whose free and vnaffected straines
Take all the Swaines
That are not rude and ignorant,
Or Enuy want.
And Enuy lest it's hate discouered be
A Courtly Loue and Friendship offers thee:
The Shepherdesses blithe and faire
For thee despaire.
And whosoe're depends on Pan
Holds him a man
Beyond themselues, (if not compare,)
He is so rare,
So innocent in all his wayes
As in his Layes.
He masters no low soule who hopes to please
The Nephew of the braue Philisides.
