John Jeffreys - My Dear Lady
Treasure and pleasure to possess?
I would not wish no better place
If I may still have wealthiness
And to enjoy in perfect peace
My lady, lady
My pleasant pleasure shall increase
My dear lady
Helen may not compared be
Nor Cressida that was so bright
These cannot stain the shine of thee
Nor yet Minerva of great might
Thou passest Venus far away
Lady, lady
Love thee I will both night and day
My dear Lady
My mouse, my nobs, my conеy sweet
My hope and joy, my whole delight
Damе Nature may fall at thy feet
And may yield to thee her crown of right
I will thy body now embrace
Lady, lady
And kiss thy sweet and pleasant face
My dear Lady
