lyrics

Or love mee lesse, or love mee more and play not with my liberty,
Either take all, or all restore, bind mee at least, or set mee free,
Let mee some nobler torture finde than of a doubtfull wavering mynd,
Take all my peace, but you betray myne honour too this cruell way.

Tis true that I have nurst before that hope of which I now com-plaine,
And having little sought no more, fearing to meet with your dis-daine:
The sparks of favour you did give, I gently blew to make them live:
And yet have gaind by all this care no rest in hope, nor in despaire.

(But) I no longer can give way
to hope, which doeth so little pay,
And yet I dare no freedome owe whilst you are kind,
though but in show.

Then give me more, or give me lesse, do not disdaine a mutuall sense,
Or your unpittying beauties dresse in their owne free indifference;
But shew not a severer eye sooner to give mee liberty,
For I shall love the very scorne which for my sake you do put on.
