Goe And Catche A Falling Starre |
Goe, and catche a falling starre |
Get with child a mandrake roote |
Tell me, where all past yeares are |
Or who cleft the Divels foot |
Teach me to heare Mermaides singing |
Or to keep off envies stinging |
And finde |
What winde |
Serves to advance an honest minde |
If thou beest borne to strange sights |
Things invisible to see |
Ride ten thousand daies and nights |
Till age snow white haires on thee |
Thou, when thou return’st, wilt tell mee |
All strange wonders that befell thee |
And sweare |
No where |
Lives a woman true, and faire |
If thou findst one, let mee know |
Such a Pilgrimage were sweet; |
Yet doe not, I would not goe |
Though at next doore wee might meet |
Though shee were true, when you met her |
And last, till you write your letter |
Yet shee |
Will bee |
False, ere I come, to two, or three |
