Thomas Campion. O What Unhop'd for Sweet Supply. (poem, song, ayre)

Two Bookes of Ayres:
The Second Booke.
IIII.
by Thomas Campion.

O what vnhop't for sweet supply !
   O what ioyes exceeding !
What an affecting charme feele I,
   From delight proceeding !
That which I long despair'd to be,
   To her I am, and shee to mee.

Shee that alone in cloudy griefe
   Long to mee appeared,
Shee now alone with bright reliefe
   All those clouds hath cleared.                                      10
Both are immortall and diuine :
Since I am hers, and she is mine.
