The passionate shepherd to his love
Samuel Daniel (1562-1619) Sleep My spotless love Michael Drayton (1563-1631) Since there's no help Joshua Sylvester (1563-1618) Were I as base William Shakespeare (1564-1616) Poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth O me! What eyes hath love put in my head Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? When in the chronicle of wasted time That time of year thou may'st in me behold How like a winter hath my absence been Being your slave, what should I do but tend When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes They that have power to hurt, and will do Farewell! thou art too dear for my possessing When to the sessions of sweet silent thought Did not the heavenly rhetoric of thine eye The forward violet thus did I chide O lest the world should task you to recite Let me not to the marriage of true minds How oft, when thou, my music, music play'st Full many a glorious morning have I seen The expense of spirit in a waste of shame Fancy Fairies Come away |
