NOw the Tyrant hath stolen my dearest away, And I am confined with Mopsa to stay, Yet let Celia remember how faithful I'le be, Neither distance nor absence shall terrifie me. In volums of sighs I will send to my Dear, And make my own heart correspond to my sphear, Till the soul of my life may be pleased to see, How delightful her safest return is to me. It cheers my sad heart to remember her love, Though malice hath caused this sudden remove, And my mind is resolved what ever ensue, Whether Sunshine or Thunder to be constant and true.
If my Bark sayl but safely, through this rugged Sea, Though with contrary winds, much tossee it be, In the Haven of rest, and long look't for content, Wee'l chant forth melodious songs of merriment. Till then Ile retreat to the Forrest and mourn, Acteon shall eccho my hound and my horn: No Reynard shall escape me that runs on the way, But patience perforce I will make him to stay. My heart hath enquired of every stone, What convoy the Heavens hath bequeath'd to my moan, But for ought I can find holy Angels are agreed, To rivall my hopes, and to slaken her speed.
THerefore Ile sit down and bewail my sad Fate, Like the Turtle I'le mourn for the loss of my mate; All the worlds greatest glories vexation to me, Till my Celia and I in our loves may be free. Celia her sweet Reply to her faithful friend. THy presence dear friend I have well understood, And how in exile thou hast wandred the wood, But I am resolved thy sorrows to free, To make thee amends, Ile soon come unto thee. 'Tis neither the Tyger, the Wolf, nor the Bear, Nor shall Nylus Crocodile put me in fear, Ile swim through the Ocean upon my bear breast, To find out my Darling whom I do love best.
And when I have found him, with double delight, Ile comfort him kindly, by day and by night, And Ile be more faithful then the Turtle Dove, Which never at all did prove false to her Love. The fierce Basilisks that kills with the eye, Shall not have the power once thee to come nigh: Ile clip thee and hug thee so close in my arms, And Ile venture my life for, to save thee from harms. My lap for thy head love, a Pillow shall be, And whilst thou dost sleep Ile be careful of thee. Ile wake, and Ile watch, and Ile kiss thee for joy, And no venemous creature shall my Love annoy. The Satyrs shall pipe, and the Syrens shall sing, The wood-nimphs with musick shall make the Groves ring.
The Horn it shall sound, and the Hounds make a noise To fill my loves heart with ten thousand rare joys. So now I am coming to hasten the deed, Pray heaven and goods Angels to be my good speed. If fortune me favour, and Seas quiet prove, I soon will arrive at the Port which I love. Now Celia is gone to find out her dear, Her heart that was sad to comfort and cheer: No doubt but each other they will lovingly greet, When as they together do lovingly meet.
