[When first mine eyes did view, and marke]
When first mine eyes did view, and marke,
Thy faire beawtie to beholde:
And when mine eares listned to hark
The pleasant wordes, that thou me tolde:
I would as then, I had been free
From eares to heare, and eyes to see.
Thy faire beawtie to beholde:
And when mine eares listned to hark
The pleasant wordes, that thou me tolde:
I would as then, I had been free
From eares to heare, and eyes to see.
And when my lips gan first to moue,
Wherby my hart to thee was knowne;
And when my tong did talk of loue,
To thee that hast true loue down throwne:
I would my lips, and tong also,
Had then bene dum, no deale to go.
Wherby my hart to thee was knowne;
And when my tong did talk of loue,
To thee that hast true loue down throwne:
I would my lips, and tong also,
Had then bene dum, no deale to go.
And when my handes haue handled ought,
That thee hath kept in memorie:
And when my fete haue gone and sought
To finde and geat thy company:
I would eche hand a foote had bene,
And I eche foote a hand had sene.
That thee hath kept in memorie:
And when my fete haue gone and sought
To finde and geat thy company:
I would eche hand a foote had bene,
And I eche foote a hand had sene.
And when in mynde I did consent
To folow this my fansies will:
And when my hart did first relent,
To tast such bayt, my life to spyll:
I would my hart had bene as thyne:
Or els thy hart had bene as mine.
To folow this my fansies will:
And when my hart did first relent,
249
I would my hart had bene as thyne:
Or els thy hart had bene as mine.
