i joy not in no earthly bliss - william byrd lyrics

Loading...

i joy not in no earthly blisse
i force not cressus welth a straw:
for care i know not what it is
i feare not fortunes fatall law
my mind is such as may not move
for beautie bright nor force of love

i wish but what i have at will
i wander not to seeke for more:
i like the plaine i clime no hill
in greatest stormes i sit on shore:
and laugh at them that toyle in vaine
to get what must bee lost againe

i kisse not where i wish to k!ll
i faine not love where most i hate:
i breake no sleepe to winnе my will
i waite not at the mighties gatе:
i scorne no poore nor feare no rich
i feele no want no have to much

the court and cart i like nor loath
extreames are counted worst of all:
the golden meane beetweene them both
doth surest sit and feare no fall:
this is my choyce, for why i finde
no wealth is like the quiet minde

- william byrd lyrics
