a meditation for his mistress - elizabeth maconchy lyrics
Loading...
you are a tulip seen to*day
but, dearest, of so short a stay
that where you grew scarce man can say
you are a lovely july*flower
yet one rude wind or ruffling shower
will force you hence, and in an hour
you are a sparkling rose i’ th’ bud
yet lost ere that chaste flesh and blood
can show where you or grew or stood
you are a full*spread, fair*set vine
and can with tendrils love entwine
yet dried ere you distil your wine
you are like balm enclosèd well
in amber or some crystal sh*ll
yet lost ere you transfuse your smell
you are a dainty violet
yet wither’d ere you can be set
within the virgin’s coronet
you are the queen all flowers among;
but die you must, fair maid, ere long
as he, the maker of this song
