The Long Love
That in My Thought Doth Harbor
Yet was I never
of your love aggrieved
Was never file
yet half so well yfiled
The lively
sparks that issue from those eyes
Such vain
thought as wonted to mislead me
Unstable
dream, according to the place
Yet that in
love find luck and sweet abundance
If waker care
; if sudden pale colour
Caesar, when
that the traitor of Egypt
Each man me
telleth I change most my devise
Some fowls
there be that have so perfect sight
Because I still
kept thee from lies and blame
I find no
peace, and all my war is done
My Galley
charged with forgetfulness
Avising the
bright beams of those fair eyes
My love to
scorn, my service to retain
Such is the
course that nature's kind hath wrought
Ever my hap
is slack and slow in coming
Love,
Fortune, and my mind which do remember
How oft have I,
my dear and cruel foe
Like unto these
unmeasurable mountains
If amorous
faith, or if a heart unfeigned
My heart I
gave thee, not to do it pain
The flaming
sighs that boil within my breast
The pillar
perish'd is whereto I leant
Farewell,
Love, and all thy laws for ever
Whoso list to
hunt? I know where is an hind
Divers doth use
I abide, and
abide ; and better abide
Though I myself
be bridled of my mind
To rail or jest,
ye know I use it not

Behold, Love,
thy power how she despiseth
What 'vaileth
truth, or by it to take pain ?
Go, burning
sighs, unto the frozen heart
Ye old mule !
that think yourself so fair

My Lute Awake!
Once, As Methought, Fortune Me Kissed
They Flee From Me
The restful place ! renewer of my smart
It may be good, like it who list
In faith I wot not what to say
There Was Never Nothing More Me Pained
Patience ! though I have not
Though I Cannot Your Cruelty Constrain
Blame Not My Lute
My Pen ! Take Pain
The heart and service to you proffer'd
Is It Possible?
And Wilt Thou Leave Me Thus?
Since so ye please to hear me plain
Forget Not Yet The Tried Intent
What Should I Say!
