A Musicall Dreame



Robert Iones

1609

 

XI. And is it night, are they thine eyes that shine


       1

       And is it night, are they thine eyes that shine,
           Are we alone and here and here alone,
       May I come neere but touch but touch thy shrine,
           Is Iealousie asleepe and he is gone
       O Gods no more, silence my lippes with thine
           Lippes, kisses, Ioyes haue blessings most deuine.

       2 

       O come my deare our griefs are turnde to night,
           And night to ioyes, night blinds pale enuies eyes,
       Silence and sleepe prepare vs our delight,
           O ease we then our woes, our griefs, our cries,
       O vanish words, words doe but passions moue,
           O deerest life, ioyes sweet, O sweetest loue.
