HAppy's the Man that's free from Love, He'll range the Woods and shady Grove: Happy's the Man that's free from Love, He'll range the Woods and shady Grove; He'll neither mind the great nor small, But a good Condition is best of all: He'll neither mind the great nor small, But a good Condition is best of all. My only care was how to keep: From cruel Woolves my harmless Sheep: My only care was how to keep From cruel Woolves my harmless Sheep:
Although from Woolves my Sheep I kept, None could my Heart from Love protect: Although from Woolves my Sheep I kept, None could my Heart from Love protect. There's ne'r a Nymph upon the Plain, That lov'd like me poor harmless Swain: There's ne'r a Nymph upon the Plain, That lov'd like me poor harmless Swain: But this I find unto my cost, He that lov'd best must suffer most: But this I find unto my cost, He that loves best, must suffer most.
DEarest Clorinda, why so Coy; Thou art my Life, my Love and Joy Dearest Clorinda, why so Coy, Thou art my Life, my Love and Joy: But this I find unto my cost, He that loves best, must suffer most. But this I find unto my cost, He that loves best, must suffer most. O then she smil'd, and to him said, I know thou canst not hurt a Maid: O then she smil'd, and to him said, I know thou canst not hurt a Maid: My coyness was but for to try Your Faithfulness and Constancy. Dearest Aminta now have done, 'Tis thou alone my heart has won; Dearest Aminta now have done, 'Tis thou alone my heart has won: 'Twas but to try thy Constancy, But now we both shall happy be: 'Twas but to try thy Constancy, But now we both shalt happy be. My Love at first I did complain, Fearing that you would me disdain: My Love, at first I did complain; Fearing that you would me disdain: But now, blest be the Powers above, I do enjoy my Dearest Love: But now, blest be the Powers above, I do enjoy my Dearest Love. Within this pleasing shady Grove, Together we'll discourse of Love: Within this pleasing shady Grove, Together, we'll Discourse of Love: And now we will enjoy the Bliss, Which is true Lovers Happiness: And now we will enjoy the Bliss, Which is true Lovers Happiness.
