Astrophel and Stella

Lyrics

What if we new beauties see Will they not stir new affection? I will thinke they pictures be (Image-like, of saints perfection) Poorely counterfeting thee But your reasons purest light Bids you leaue such minds to be Who is it that this darke night Well, in absence this will dy; Leaue to see, and leaue to wonder Absence sure will helpe, if I Can learne how my selfe to sunder But time will these thoughts remoue; Time doth work what no man know Time doth as the subiect proue; With time still the affection groweth In the faithful turtle-doue Why, alas, and are you he? Be not yet those fancies changed? Deare, when you find change in me Well, in absence this will dy; Leaue to see, and leaue to wonder Absence sure will helpe, if I Can learne how my selfe to sunder Well, in absence this will dy; Leaue to see, and leaue to wonder Absence sure will helpe, if I Can learne how my selfe to sunder Well, in absence this will dy; Leaue to see, and leaue to wonder Absence sure will helpe, if I Can learne how my selfe to sunder Well, in absence this will dy; Leaue to see, and leaue to wonder Absence sure will helpe, if I Can learne how my selfe to sunder
