william congreve - a hue and cry after fair amoret - richard mitchley lyrics

Loading...

fair amoret is gone astray—
pursue and seek her, ev’ry lover;
i’ll tell the signs by which you may
the wand’ring shepherdess discover

coquette and coy at once her air
both studied, tho’ both seem neglected;
careless she is, with artful care
affecting to seem unaffected

with sk!ll her eyes dart ev’ry glance
yet change so soon you’d ne’er suspect them
for she’d persuade thеy wound by chance
tho’ certain aim and art direct thеm

she likes herself, yet others hates
for that which in herself she prizes;
and, while she laughs at them, forgets
she is the thing that she despises
