Each lovely grace -- Truth-trying time -- Two lovers sat lamenting -- 'Tis true, 'tis day -- Dear, though your mind -- Shall I be with joys deceived? -- Down, down, proud mind -- Beware, fair maids -- The fire to see my woes -- Go, heavy thoughts -- My dearest mistress -- Man, like a prophet -- As by a fountain -- Away, away! call back -- When I was born -- Shall a smile or guileful glance? -- We yet agree -- Fly swift, my thoughts. |
