¶Lyrics / Text

Fie on this feigning is love without desire, Heat still remaining and yet no spark of fire? Thou art untrue, nor wert with fancy movèd, for Desire hath pow'r on all that ever lovèd. Show some relenting, or grant thou dost now love, two hearts consenting shall they no comforts prove? Yield, or confess that love is without pleasure, and that women's bounties rob men of their treasure. Truth is not placèd in words and forcèd smiles, Love is not gracèd with that which still beguiles. Love or dislike, yield fire, or give no fuel, so may'st thou prove kind, or at the least less cruel.
