[Weepe not my dolefull eies]
Weepe
not my dolefull eies,
But if you weepe, thinke (at the lest)
They tolde no trueth but lies,
And then it may be you may rest.
But if you weepe, thinke (at the lest)
They tolde no trueth but lies,
And then it may be you may rest.
Since that imagination
Doth cause so much in euery state,
Thinke that she loues thee as of late,
And thou shalt haue lesse passion.
Doth cause so much in euery state,
Thinke that she loues thee as of late,
And thou shalt haue lesse passion.
And if you will (mine eies)
Haue ease, imagine then the best,
And that they told you lies:
And so perhaps you may haue rest.
Haue ease, imagine then the best,
And that they told you lies:
And so perhaps you may haue rest.
Thinke that she loues as well,
As euer she did heretofore:
But this sad men cannot restore,
To thinke what once befell:
As euer she did heretofore:
But this sad men cannot restore,
To thinke what once befell:
Then mournfull eies, where lies
Your helpe? Yet thinke of some at lest,
If not, weepe still mine eies,
Or make an end, and you shall rest.
Your helpe? Yet thinke of some at lest,
If not, weepe still mine eies,
Or make an end, and you shall rest.
