016.F04.0HE  A Paradoxe /D.%5r%6 Donne. In the Praise of change in a Lover.|
016.F04.001  Although thy hand, and Faith, and good Workes too
016.F04.002  Have seal'd thy love, w%5ch%6 nothing should undoe;
016.F04.003  Yett though Thou fall back, that Apostacy
016.F04.004  Confines Thy Love, yett much much I feare Thee.
016.F04.005  Women are like y%5e%6 Arts, forbid to none
016.F04.006  Open to all searchers, unpriz'd if unknowne.
016.F04.007  If I have caught a Bird, and lett him fly,
016.F04.008  Another fowler using those meanes as I,
016.F04.009  May catch y%5e%6 same Bird: And as these things bee,
016.F04.010  Women are made for Men, not Him, nor Mee.
016.F04.011  Foxes, and Goates, all things change when they please;
016.F04.012  Shall Women more Hott, Wily, Wild, then these
016.F04.013  Bee bound to one Man? And did Nature then
016.F04.014  Idly make them apter to endure then Men?
016.F04.015  They are o%5r%6 cloggs, and their owne; If a* Man bee
016.F04.016  Chain'd to a Galley, yett y%5e%6 Gallie's free.
016.F04.017  Who hath plowd Land casts all his seed* Corne there,
016.F04.018  And yet allows his ground more corne to beare.
016.F04.019  Though %1Danubie%2 into y%5e%6 Sea most flow,
016.F04.020  The Sea receives y%5e%6 %1Rhene%2, %1Volga%2, and %1Po%2
016.F04.021  By Nature, w%5ch%6 gives itt this Libertie?
016.F04.022  Thou lov'st, but canst not Love both Him and Mee?
016.F04.023  Likenes glues Love; Then if so thou doe,
016.F04.024  To make us like and Love, must I change too?
016.F04.025  More then I hate hate itt. Rather tell mee,
016.F04.026  Allow her change, then change as oft as shee;
016.F04.027  And so not teach but force my opinion
016.F04.028  To Love not any one, nor every, One.
016.F04.029  To Live in one Land is Captivity,
016.F04.030  To runne a Country is wild Roguery
016.F04.031  Waters stinke soone if in one place they bide,
016.F04.032  And in y%5e%6 Vast Sea are worse putrified;
016.F04.033  But when they kisse one Banke, and Loving this
016.F04.034  Never looke backe, but y%5e%6 next Banke do kisse,
016.F04.035  Then they are purest. Change is y%5e%6 Nursery
016.F04.036  Of Musick, Ioy, Life, and Eternity.
