A Song.
1.
TIs true fair Phillis, heretoforeI your Beauty did adore,And gave my Captive heart a prizeTo the conquest of your eyes.
2.
But since that you so cruel prove,To reject my chastest love,And do wound me by disdain,Give me back my heart again.
3.
Although I'm sure I cannot beContented with my liberty;I am resolved to submitTo good old Sack to cherrish it.
