"Wilt Thou Unkind Thus Reave Me" lyrics

"Wilt Thou Unkind Thus Reave Me"

Wilt thou unkind thus reave me
Of my heart, of my heart
And so leave me, and so leave me?

Wilt thou unkind thus reave me
Of my heart, of my heart
And so leave me, and so leave me?

Farewell! Farewell!
But yet or e'er I part, O cruel
Kiss me, sweet, kiss me
Sweet, sweet my jewel

Hope by disdain grows cheerless
Fear doth love, love doth fear
Beauty peerless, beauty peerless

Farewell! Farewell!
But yet or e'er I part, O cruel
Kiss me, sweet, kiss me
Sweet, sweet my jewel

If no delayes can move thee
Life shall die, death shall live
Still to love thee, still to love thee?

Farewell! Farewell!
But yet or e'er I part, O cruel
Kiss me, sweet, kiss me
Sweet, sweet my jewel

Yet be thou mindfull ever
Heat from fire, fire from heat
None can see sever, none can sever

Farewell! Farewell!
But yet or e'er I part, O cruel
Kiss me, sweet, kiss me
Sweet, sweet my jewel

True love cannot be changed
Though delight from desert
Be estranged, be estranged

Farewell! Farewell!
But yet or e'er I part, O cruel
Kiss me, sweet, kiss me
Sweet, sweet my jewel
