The Captive Lover.
If my Mistress fix her eye
on these ruder lines of mine,
let them tell her how I ly
fetter'd by her looks divine:
Tell her it is only she
can release and set me free.

let them tell her how I ly
fetter'd by her looks divine:
Tell her it is only she
can release and set me free.
Tell her yet 'tis my desire
To remain her Captive still;
Neither can I ayme at higher
Hope or Fortune then her Will:
So she will my thraldome pay
But with one good looke a day.
