How many eyes (poore Loue) hast thou to guard
Thee from thy most desired wish, and end?
Is it because some say th' art blinde, that barr'd
From sight, thou should'st no happinesse attend?
Thee from thy most desired wish, and end?
Is it because some say th' art blinde, that barr'd
From sight, thou should'st no happinesse attend?
Who blame thee so, small Iustice can pretend,
Since 'twixt thee and the Sunne no question hard
Can be; his sight but outward, thou can'st bend
The heart, and guide it freely thus vnbar'd.
Since 'twixt thee and the Sunne no question hard
Can be; his sight but outward, thou can'st bend
The heart, and guide it freely thus vnbar'd.
Art thou, while we both blinde and bold, oft dare
Accuse thee of the harmes our selues should finde:
Who led with folly, and by rashnesse blinde
Thy sacred power doe with a child's compare.
Accuse thee of the harmes our selues should finde:

Thy sacred power doe with a child's compare.
Yet Loue, this boldnesse pardon; for admire
Thee sure we must, or be borne without fire.
Thee sure we must, or be borne without fire.
