W[h]y are my Eyes still Flow-ing? Why does my heart thus trembling move? Why do I sigh, when go-ing? To see the Darling Saint I Love: Ah! she's my Heaven, and in her Eyes, The Dei-ty, There is no Life Like what she can give, Nor any Death like taking my leave.
I. Tell me no more of Glo-ry, to Courts Ambition I've resign'd, But tell a long long Sto-ry, of Celia's shape her face and mind: Speak too of Raptures that will Life destroy, to En-joy, Had I a Diadem Scepter and Ball, for that dear minute I'd part with them all. II. Why am I not injoy-ing my self, delighting in thy Arms? My painful Love destroy-ing, with killing pleasures from thy Charms: Come, come dear Celia, now let Storms be gone, and o-ver-blown; There's no delight like thy transporting Love, No joy below, what e're there's above. IV. Why does my heart thus grieve-me, as I lye panting on my Bed? Why does my hopes deceive-me, when cruel Fate[s] pronounce me dead? Speak, speak, dear Saint, and by those conq'ring eyes that- -surprize: Give, give me favour in thy fight again, Or kill me quite to ea[s]e my pain.
V. Her ANSWER. HOw can I seek to co-ver a flaming heart o'rewhelm'd with grief? See, see a Constant Lo-ver, thus fainting, plead for some relief! No, no, Aminta, cease now to implore sigh-no more: Had I ten thousand hearts in my Breast, I'd part with all to give my Love rest. VI. Why does Aminta sigh-ing, think I will coyly Love deface? But can there be deny-ing, to such a Person, such a Grace? Ah! such becoming boldness too is found, to-be Crown'd, That no fair Nymph that lives upon the plain, Can have a heart to give my Dear pain. VII. Amint. Who can express the joy-ing, that my poor heart doth leaping find? Fly hence all heart-annoy-ing, and fatal grief, for Celia's kind: Come then dear Celia, let us now enjoy, Cel. Ay, dear-est Ay: While we have Breath let Mortals wonder this, Envy they may, but not spoil our Bliss.
