The Works in Verse and Prose of Nicholas Breton | ||
A Farewell to Conceipt.
Farewell Conceit: Cōceit no more wel fare:
Hope feeds the heart with humours, to no end:
Fortune is false, in dealing of her share:
Virtue in heauen must only seeke a friend.
Hope feeds the heart with humours, to no end:
Fortune is false, in dealing of her share:
Virtue in heauen must only seeke a friend.
Adieu, Desire. Desire, no more adieu,
Will hath no leasure to regard desart:
Love findes, too late, the prouerbe all too true,
That Beauties eyes stoode neuer in her heart.
Will hath no leasure to regard desart:
Love findes, too late, the prouerbe all too true,
That Beauties eyes stoode neuer in her heart.
Away, poore Loue. Loue, seek no more a way
Vnto thy woe, where wishing is no wealth:
In nightes deepe darkenesse neuer looke for day,
Nor in hearts sicknesse euer seeke for health.
Vnto thy woe, where wishing is no wealth:
In nightes deepe darkenesse neuer looke for day,
Nor in hearts sicknesse euer seeke for health.
Desire, Conceipt, away, adieu, farewell:
Love is deceiu'd, that seeks for heauen in hell.
Love is deceiu'd, that seeks for heauen in hell.
