Song: Sweetest Love, I Do Not GoBy John Donne
Sweetest love, I do not go, For weariness of thee,Nor in hope the world can show A fitter love for me; But since that IMust die at last, 'tis bestTo use myself in jest Thus by feign'd deaths to die.
Yesternight the sun went hence, And yet is here today;He hath no desire nor sense, Nor half so short a way: Then fear not me,But believe that I shall makeSpeedier journeys, since I take More wings and spurs than he.
O how feeble is man's power, That if good fortune fall,Cannot add another hour, Nor a lost hour recall! But come bad chance,And we join to'it our strength,And we teach it art and length, Itself o'er us to'advance.
When thou sigh'st, thou sigh'st not wind, But sigh'st my soul away;When thou weep'st, unkindly kind, My life's blood doth decay. It cannot beThat thou lov'st me, as thou say'st,If in thine my life thou waste, That art the best of me.
Let not thy divining heart Forethink me any ill;Destiny may take thy part, And may thy fears fulfil; But think that weAre but turn'd aside to sleep;They who one another keep Alive, ne'er parted be.
