ENGLISH POEMS.
ANONYMOUS.
0. Madrigal.
Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleasing eye or face;
Nor for
any outward part,
No, nor for my constant heart:
For those may fail or turn to ill,
So thou and I shall sever:
Keep
therefore a true woman's eye,
And love me still, but know not why;
So hast thou the same reason still
To doat upon me ever.

Come, dear children, let us away;
Down and away below.
Now my brothers call from the bay;
Now
the great winds shorewards
