PRIMITIÆ AMORIS
Yon
shining top, that taketh
The sun's first kiss,
No sad lamenting maketh
To be not his,
But with the whole world share
The noon's exceeding glare.
The sun's first kiss,
No sad lamenting maketh
To be not his,
But with the whole world share
The noon's exceeding glare.
O love! the first sweet kisses
Live on the lips,
Through many-partnered blisses,
Through love's eclipse,
Through all life takes away,
Through all that death can pay.
