On a lost Heart.

What shall I do? I've lost my Heart

What shall I do? I've lost my Heart; 'tis gone I know not whether: Cupid cut's strings, then lent him wings and both are flowne together. Fair Ladies, tell, for Loves sweet sake, Did any of you find it? Come come, it lies in your Lips or Eyes, though you'l not please to mind it. Well, If 'tis lost, then farewell frost, I will enquire no more; for Ladies they steal Hearts away but only to restore.
