Should I a jot the better see? No, I should think that marriage might, 236. UPON A PHYSICIAN. THOU Cam'st to cure me, doctor, of my cold, 238. TO THE Rose. A SONG. Go, happy rose, and interwove Say, if she's fretful, I have bands Take thou my blessing thus, and go And tell her this, but do not so, Like a lightning from her eye, And burn thee up as well as I. 240. TO HIS BOOK. THOU art a plant sprung up to wither never, 241. UPON A PAINTED GENTLEWOMAN. MEN say y'are fair, and fair ye are, 'tis true; 243. DRAW-GLOVES. AT draw-gloves we'll play, Who first to the sum Of twenty shall come, Shall have for his winning a kiss. 244. TO MUSIC, TO BECALM A SWEET-SICK YOUTH. CHARMS, that call down the moon from out her sphere, On this sick youth work your enchantments here: As to entrance his pain, or cure his woe. Draw-gloves, a game of talking by the fingers. 245. TO THE HIGH AND NOBLE PRINCE GEORGE, Duke, MARQUIS, AND EARL OF BUCKINGHAM. NEVER my book's perfection did appear Your sober handmaid, who doth wisely choose 246. HIS RECANTATION. LOVE, I recant, And pardon crave That lately I offended; But 'twas, To make a brave, But no disdain intended.

So good luck came, and on my roof did light, 248. THE PRESENT; OR, THE BAG OF THE BEE. FLY to my mistress, pretty pilfering bee, And say thou bring'st this honey bag from me : If so, we live; if not, with mournful hum 249. ON LOVE. LOVE bade me ask a gift, And I no more did move But this, that I might shift Still with my clothes my love: That favour granted was; Since which, though I love many, Yet so it comes to pass That long I love not any. Move, urge. 250. THE HOCK-CART OR HARVEst home. TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE MILDMAY, EARL OF WEST MORELAND. COME, Sons of summer, by whose toil By whose tough labours and rough hands The horses, mares, and frisking fillies, The harvest swains and wenches bound Those with a shout, and these with laughter. To prayers than to merriment, Run after with their breeches rent. Well, on, brave boys, to your lord's hearth, Maukin, a cloth. Fill-horse, shaft-horse. |
