Deceitfull fancie
1
Deceitfull fancy why deludst thou me,The dead a liue presenting?
My ioyes faire image caru'd in shades I see,
O false! yet sweet contenting?
Why art not thou a substance like to the?
Or I a shade to vanish hence with thee?
2
Stay gentle obiect, my sence still deceiue,With this thy kind elusion:
I die throgh madnes if my thoughts you leaue
O strange? yet sweet confusion?
Poore blisselesse harte that feeles such deepe annoy,
Only to loose the shadowe of thy ioy.
