Stand still and I will reade to thee A lecture, loue, in loues philosophie; Those three howres which wee haue spent In walking here, two shadowes went Alonge with vs, which wee our selues produced. But now the Sun is iust aboue our head, Wee doe those shadowes treade, And to braue, cleernes all thinges are reducd Soe whilst our infant loue did growe Disguise did, and shadowes flowe From vs and our care, but now tis not soe; That loue hath not attaind the highest degree, Which is still diligent, least others see. Except our loue att this noone staie Wee shall new shadowes make the other waie; As the first were made to blynde Others, these which com̅e behinde Will worke vppon our selues, and blinde our eies, If one loue fainte and westwardly decline, To mee, thou falsly thine, And I to thee myne actions shall disguise; The Morninge shadowes weare awaie, But thes growe longer all the daie: But oh loues daie is spent if loue decaie Loue is a growing, or full constant light And his first Minute afternoone is Night.| |
