Love and Musick.
Come my Sweet, whilst ev'ry strain
cals our souls into the Eare,
where the greedy listning fain
would turn into the sound they heare;
lest in desire
to fill the quire
themselves they tye
to harmony,
let's kiss & call them back again.

where the greedy listning fain

to harmony,
let's kiss & call them back again.
Now let's orderly convey
Our Souls into each other's Brest,
Where enterchanged let them stay
Slumb'ring in a melting rest:
Then with new fire
Let them retire,
And still present
Sweet fresh content
Youthfull as the early day.

Let them retire,
And still present
Sweet fresh content
Youthfull as the early day.
Then let us a Tumult make,
Shuffling so our souls, that we
Careless who did give or take,
May not know in whom they be,
Then let each smother
And stifle the other,
Till we expire
In gentle fire.
Scorning the forgetfull Lake.
