Loves Elegie.
Ring mournfull Bells, for ever Ring,
Now Love is dead,
Let Quoristers forget to Sing
Love being fled.
Now Love is dead,
Let Quoristers forget to Sing
Love being fled.
Musitians all your warbling Art,
You may set by
And Learn now to take to heart
Loves Elegie.
You may set by
And Learn now to take to heart
Loves Elegie.
Great Hymens Court is at an end
Th' Elizium Grove,
Containeth nothing but a Feind,
That hateth Love.
Th' Elizium Grove,
Containeth nothing but a Feind,
That hateth Love.
Mourn youth, and Poets, Muses, mourn,
In Sad attire,
Your fancies never more shall burn
With Loves chast fire.
In Sad attire,
Your fancies never more shall burn
With Loves chast fire.
May young and old, and all lament
This dismall day,
And all erect a Monnument
On Loves dead clay.
This dismall day,
And all erect a Monnument
On Loves dead clay.
No, Ring, Sing, Play, heark what is told,
Forbear to weep,
Youth, Poets,, Muses, Young, and old,
Love doth but sleep.
Forbear to weep,
Youth, Poets,, Muses, Young, and old,
Love doth but sleep.
