A Y R E S
TO
SING AND PLAY


William Corkine

1610

 

XII. Shall a frowne or angrie eye.

                               1
  Shall a frowne or angrie eye,
  Shall a word vnfitly placed ?
  Shall a shadow make me flie,
  As I were with Tygers chaced ?
  Loue must not be so disgraced.

                               2
  Shall I woe her in dispight ?
  Shall I turne her from her flying ?
  Shall I tempt her with delight,
  Shall I laugh out her denying ?
  Noe, beware of louers crying. 

                               3 
  Shall I then with patient mind,
  Still attend her wayward pleasure,
  Time will make her proue more kind,
  Let her coynesse then take leasure,
  Paines are worthy such a treasure.
