Bearing his light, not beat away?

If thou repose in the moist bed
Of the Sea-Queen, bring back the day
To our dark clime, and thou shalt lye
Bath'd in the sea flowes from mine eye.
Vpon what whirlewind didst thou ride
Hence, yet remain fixt in my heart,
From me, and to me; fled, and ty'd?
Dark riddles of the amorous art;
Love lent thee wings to fly, so Hee
Vnfeather'd now must rest with me.
Helph, help, brave Youth, I burn, I bleed,
The cruell God with Bow and Brand
Pursues the life thy valour freed,
Disarm him with thy conquering hand;
And that thou mayest the wild boy tame,
Give me his dart, keep thou his flame.
