My Thoughts are Wing'd with Hopes |
My thoughts are wing’d with hopes, my hopes with love |
Mount Love unto the moon in clearest night |
And say, as she doth in the heavens move |
In earth so wanes and waxeth my delight: |
And whisper this but softly in her ears |
Hope oft doth hang the head, and trust shed tears |
And you my thoughts that some mistrust do carry |
If for mistrust my mistress do you blame |
Say though you alter, yet you do not vary |
And she doth change, and yet remain the same: |
Distrust doth enter hearts, but not infect |
And love is sweetest season’d with suspect |
If she, for this, with clouds do mask her eyes |
And make the heavens dark with her disdain |
With windy sighs, disperse them in the skies |
Or with thy tears dissolve them into rain; |
Thoughts, hopes, and love return to me no more |
Till Cynthia shine as she hath done before |
