Thy face,
Have ravished so my sprites, That life is grown to nought Through thought Of love, which me affrights. For fancy's flames of fire Aspire Unto such furious power, As but the tears I shed Make dead, The brands would me devour. I should consume to nought Through thought Of thy fair shining eye, Thy cheeks, thy pleasing smiles, The wiles That forced my heart to die, Thy grace, thy face, the part Where art Stands gazing still to see The wondrous gifts and power, Each hour, That hath bewitched me. |
