Our fancies are more giddie and vnfirme,
More longing, wauering, sooner lost and worne, Then womens are Vio. I thinke it well my Lord Du. Then let thy Loue be yonger then thy selfe, Or thy affection cannot hold the bent: For women are as Roses, whose faire flowre Being once displaid, doth fall that verie howre Vio. And so they are: alas, that they are so: To die, euen when they to perfection grow. Enter Curio & Clowne. Du. O fellow come, the song we had last night: Marke it Cesario, it is old and plaine; The Spinsters and the Knitters in the Sun, And the free maides that weaue their thred with bones, Do vse to chaunt it: it is silly sooth, And dallies with the innocence of loue, Like the old age Clo. Are you ready Sir? Duke. I prethee sing. Musicke. The Song. |
