She With Whom Compar'd The Alpes Are Vallies |
I wish to fire the trees af all these forrest |
I give the Sunne a last farewell each evening |
I curse the fidling finders out of Musicke |
With envie i doo hate the loftie mountains |
And with despite despise the humble vallies |
I doo detest night, evening, day, and morning |
For she, whose parts maintainde a perfect musique |
Whose beawties shin’de more then the blushing morning |
Who much did passe in state the stately mountains |
In straightnes past the Cedars of the forest |
Hath cast me wretch into eternally evening |
By taking her two Sunnes from these darke vallies |
Curse to my selfe my prayers is, the morning |
My fire is more, then can be made with forrests |
My state more base, then are the basest vallies |
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening |
Shamed I hate my selfe in sight of mountaines |
And stoppe mine ears, lest I growe mad with Musicke |
For she, with whorm compar’d, the Alpes are vallies |
She, whose lest word brings from the spheares their musique |
At whose approach the Sunne rase in the evening |
Who, where she went, bare in her forhead morning |
Is gone, is gone from these our spolyed forrests |
Turning to desarts our best pastur’de mountaines |
