Song.
MIstake me not,I am as cold as hot;For though mine eyes betrays thy heart o're night,Ere morn, ere morn, ere morning all is right.
Sometimes I burn,And then do I return;There's nothing so unconstant as my mind:I change, I change, I change even as the wind.
Perhaps in jestI said, I lov'd thee best;But 'twas no more, then what was long beforeI vow'd, I vow'd, I vow'd to twenty more.
Then prithee see,I give no heart to thee,
descriptionPage 56
For when I ne're could keep my own one day,What hope, what hope, what hope hadst thou to stay.
